Mango Does the Tango

Bender’s Blenders: Mango Does the Tango

This smoothie was straight out of the tropics! I’ve never made a mango smoothie before and wasn’t quite sure what to expect, but it didn’t disappoint. Combined with the vanilla protein powder - this brand has absolutely no chalky aftertaste! – it made for a thick and creamy evening treat.

Ingredients (serves 1):

  • 1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
  • 1 packet (30g) Jay Robb vanilla whey protein powder
  • 1/2 cup frozen mango
  • 2 ice cubes
  • Optional: shredded coconut topping

~*~

Combine the first four ingredients and blend until smooth. If desired, top with shredded coconut to give it an added taste of the tropics. This smoothie honestly tasted like a dessert – and it’s nutritional profile is outstanding!! I think I need to buy this protein powder in bulk because it’s the best I’ve ever tasted. It seems as though anyone who tries it loves it just as much as I do - am I right?

I loved the yellow color – it made a day of studying brighter ;) Mm Mm Mm!

Jay Robb is my fave!!! I do the chocolate flavor – but I bet vanilla is great too. You’re right is it THE only brand I have tried with no weird chalky texture/flavor!
