We love smoothies here at Adventures in Mindful Living! We have a whole page dedicated to them on our site and we personally drink one almost everyday!  This is a new one I came up with this week. The kids were learning about cranberries in a really neat DVD series called Curiosity Quest (review coming soon). I thought a fun snack to enjoy while watching their movie about cranberries would be a yummy smoothie that had cranberries in it.  I looked through my freezer and found some other yummy fruits to compliment the flavor and this is what we ended up with. The kids loved it and it was jammed packed with nutrition!  That is a win-win  in my book!

We decided on the Mango Berry Smoothie name becasue we had 2 kinds of berries (strawberries and cranberries). We hope you will give this smoothie recipe a try! Let us know how you like it and remember we love pictures on of your creations on our FB wall!!

Mango Berry Smoothie

Ingredients:

1 banana

1/4  cup cranberries ( I used dried cranberries because I couldn’t find any fresh ones this time of year)

1/4 cup frozen mango

1/2 cup strawberries

1 cup almond milk (yours may need a little bit more of less depending on your blender- you just want your smoothie nice and smooth)

1/4 cup Green Goodness  (optional but it adds a nice little sweetness- see pic below)

1 scoop of my favorite (or your) protein powder – (optional)

 

Directions-

Blend all together in your blender.Add more almond milk  (or other nondairy milk of your choice) if needed to get it to the consistency you prefer!

 

I have had several people ask me about Green Goodness so I thought I would take a picture for you so you know what I am talking about and you can see everything that is in it. I add this to almost all of my smoothies to make them a little sweeter. My kids LOVE this stuff!

Bolthouse Farms Green Goodness- I love this stuff!!!
