Juicy juicy mango smoothie!

Ooooweeee!! This is super simple and quick to make and I just had it after my Body Attack class this morning so thought I would share!

Firstly I have to say...frozen fruit is 100% THE way forward when making smoothies. Honestly it is. For one, frozen fruit is cheaper but no less good for you than fresh... seeing as it is the same fresh fruit off the trees but just frozen for a bit ha. And secondly, it means you dont need to bother using ice cubes to make your smoothie as the frozen fruit has this covered too!! I personally hate getting ice out of ice cube trays :/

Today's was frozen mango, water and unsweetened almond milk...(I also added half a fresh pear as I had this and it needed eating but that is optional) and yum it was soooo good!

So...
1/2 glass unsweetened almond milk
1/4 glass water
About 60g of frozen mango
1/2 fresh pear

Blenddddddd it real good and enjoy!
Summery, refreshing, naturally sweetened thanks to the fruit and all in all delicious : )


The same could be done with whatever fresh fruit you fancy and different combinations too...let me know your favourites so I can try them out!

Smoothies are a great choice to go for to refuel after a work out, you could also add rolled oats if you want to which will add slow release, low GI carbs to the mix ; )

Love,
