Rise & Shine! Mango-Banana Smoothie

I recently bought some frozen, organic mangos from Trader Joe's and built this smoothie around those.  I wasn't in the mood for a traditional breakfast this morning so I decided to make this.  It was a delicious (and nutritious) alternative!  It's also quite filling.


Mango-Banana Smoothie
Ingredients
1/2 cup light coconut milk
1 cup frozen mangos
1 small banana
1 tbsp ground flaxseed
handful of almonds
Directions:
Place all ingredients in blender/food processor and blend until smooth.


*This will make a thick smoothie, so feel free to add 1/2 cup more liquid if you like it thinner.

mmm...I think I'll make this for breakfast tomorrow! I happen to have frozen mango chunks and a very ripe banana in the fruit bowl.
I will have to use skimmed dairy milk... I don't have any non-dairy at hand.

Dairy milk will work too! I might have it for breakfast myself again tomorrow! ;)
