Serving: 2 | Pre Time: 10 minutes | Cooking Time: 0 minutes
Ingredients
– 2 cups frozen mango chunks (about 10 oz, ensures a thick, frosty texture)
– 2 cups fresh kale leaves, stems removed and roughly torn (curly or lacinato varieties work well)
– 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any plant-based milk, adjust for desired consistency)
– 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (full-fat recommended for extra creaminess)

5. Pour the smoothie evenly into two glasses, dividing it carefully to ensure equal portions.
