Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups diced frozen mango blend (about 1¼ cups frozen mango and 1 frozen kiwi)
  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
  • 2 teaspoons chia seeds
  • 1 scoop plain protein powder*
  • 1 cup filtered water
  • 1-2 teaspoons optional: maple syrup
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Add frozen mango and kiwi, ginger, protein powder, to a blender and blend for about 1 minute, or till combined and smooth. Taste and add maple syrup, if needed.

Notes

  • If you can't find a frozen mango/kiwi blend, try 1 1/4 cups of frozen mango and 1 frozen kiwi, or just use all mango. 
  • This was tested with 1 scoop of pumpkin seed protein powder. I recommend a mild flavored protein powder. 
  • This recipe has a kick. If you don't like a lot of ginger spice, decrease the amount to 1-2 teaspoons.
