The tropical combination of mango, pineapple and banana paired with the mild taste of Pitaya hits the spot every time. Sprinkled with protein rich health filled toppings makes this a perfect snack.
Ingredients:
Smoothie:
1 cup frozen mango
½ cup frozen pineapple
1 frozen banana
1 frozen pack of Pitaya
¾ cup almond milk (more or less depending on desired consistency)
Toppings:
Shredded coconut
Hemp seeds
fresh blueberries
pecans
mulberries
Chef’s note: You can use fresh fruit for some of the frozen if you want, or freeze your own fresh, however the frozen gives your bowl a thicker consistency. I measured the fruit by loosely placing in a measuring cup and stopping when first piece hit the measure I was looking for. Any milk of choice will work.
Method:
Place all smoothie ingredients into a blender and mix until well blended. Add a touch more milk if too thick and won’t blend, but you want it as thick as possible. Once blended, place in bowl and top with all the toppings and enjoy!
