1. Ingredients: The Shopping List

Here’s what you’ll need for 2 servings (or one big one if you’re really hungry):

1 cup frozen mango chunks (Trader Joe’s or Dole work great—no need to thaw!)
1/2 cup canned coconut milk (full-fat for creaminess, like Thai Kitchen; light works too)
1 scoop vanilla protein powder (30g; Optimum Nutrition or Orgain for plant-based)
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (or coconut yogurt for vegan)
1 tbsp chia seeds (optional, but adds fiber and crunch)
1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or water, if you prefer)
1 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional, if you like it sweeter)
Handful of ice cubes (if using fresh mango)

Bonus upgrades: Spinach (for greens), lime zest, or a pinch of turmeric for color!

2. Prep Steps: Keep It Simple

Chop (if needed): If using fresh mango, peel and dice it—then freeze for 30 mins.
Measure everything: Grab your blender and line up ingredients. No multitasking needed!
Layer smart: Add liquids first to help blending: coconut milk, almond milk, then yogurt, mango, protein powder, chia seeds, and sweetener.

3. Blending: The “Cooking” Part

Step 1: Dump all ingredients into the blender.
Step 2: Blend on high for 30–45 seconds. Pause to scrape the sides if needed.
Step 3: Taste! Too thick? Add a splash of almond milk. Too thin? Toss in ice.
Secret tip: Freeze your coconut milk in an ice cube tray beforehand for extra creaminess without dilution.

4. Serving: Make It Instagram-Worthy

Pour into a tall glass (mason jars = instant charm) and top with:

Toasted coconut flakes
Fresh mango slices
A mint sprig
Sprinkle of chia seeds

Pair it with: A slice of whole-grain toast with almond butter or a handful of granola for crunch.

8. Final Thoughts

This smoothie is like sunshine in a glass—sweet, satisfying, and secretly good for you. The combo of mango and coconut is a classic for a reason (fun fact: coconut milk’s fats help absorb the mango’s vitamins!). Play with the recipe, add your twist, and sip your way to a brighter morning.
