Protein Power Breakfast smoothie
The smoothie with the mix of natural sugars, vitamins, and minerals from the banana + mango combo makes you feel strong like HULK .
Ingredients
- 1 cup (250 ml) unsweetened almond milk
- 1 ripe banana, frozen
- ½ cup chopped mango, frozen
- 2 tbsp pumpkin seeds
- 2 tbsp chia seeds
- optional: ½ scoop OZiva Protein & Herbs Powder + ¼ cup water
Instructions
- In a blender (or large tumbler if you’re using an immersion blender) layer the banana, mango, pumpkin seeds, and hemp hearts. Add the almond milk and blend until the pumpkin seeds are really smooth. This recipe makes a single 16 oz serving sized smoothie.
Notes
For a nut free option, substitute the almond milk with certified nut free oat milk, rice milk,soy milk, or coconut milk
For a higher protein option: Add a scoop of your favorite protein powder and/or substitute the almond milk with high protein non-dairy milk such as soy. This smoothie contains approx. 13g of protein when made with almond milk, substituting it with soy milk will add an additional 6g of protein. Adding protein powder will add about 6-15g of protein (depending on the brand and amount of protein powder you use.)
To make a variation of this smoothie without banana, substitute the banana with ? cup of frozen mango or frozen peaches.
