  • 1/2 cup frozen mango chunks
  • 1 cup fresh spinach leaves, packed
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric Helps fight inflammation.
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper Increases absorption of curcumin from turmeric.
  • 1 teaspoon fresh grated ginger or 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds or flaxseed
  • 1 tablespoon almond butter

Equipment

  • 1 blender
  • 1 set measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. Add almond milk to the blender first.
  2. Add banana, pineapple and mango chunks, and spinach.
  3. Pour in lemon juice, then add turmeric, black pepper, grated ginger, chia seeds, and almond butter.
  4. Blend on high for 45-60 seconds, or until smooth and creamy.
  5. Taste and adjust lemon juice or ginger for extra brightness if desired.
  6. Pour into two glasses and serve immediately.
  7. Optionally, you can add a pitted Medjool date for sweetness if desired.

Notes

The black pepper helps increase the absorption of curcumin from turmeric.
Swap almond milk for coconut water for added hydration.
For a thicker smoothie, use frozen banana or add a few ice cubes before blending.
If you want it sweeter, add half a pitted Medjool date to the mix.
This smoothie is best served fresh, but can be stored in the fridge for up to 6 hours and stirred before drinking.
