Simple Sunny Mango Lemon Coriander Smoothie

January 9th, 2017

“A good laugh is sunshine in the house.” ~ William Makepeace Thackeray

Ergo, a good smoothie is sunshine in the belly! Says me.

If winter still has a strong foothold in your world, this treat might not bring the actual sun out but it will make your taste buds shine.

Tropical mango and pineapple blend up to be a light and very digestible base.

Tonnes of lemon and fresh coriander (aka cilantro) brighten things up and add a detoxification component that supports the liver and coax heavy metals out of the body.

Blend on!

Ingredients

Go organic. Makes one serving.

½ a large mango, cubed (about ¾ cup)

1/3 cup of pineapple

Juice of half a lemon

1 Tbsp hemp hearts

Tbsp chopped cilantro/coriander leaves

1/3 cup almond milk

¾ cup filtered water (or more if needed)

Blend until light & smooth and let the sun shine in.

Optional: Greens like romaine, green leaf lettuce or spinach taste great in here and will give your blend a boost of nutrients.
