A creamy and refreshing mango pineapple smoothie recipe that can be made in minutes. This dairy-free smoothie is made with deliciously tropical pineapple and mango, high-protein Greek yogurt, and no banana.
Ingredients for a Mango Pineapple Smoothie:
- Frozen Pineapple Chunks: for a delicious sweet flavor. I like using frozen fruits to keep my smoothies cold and frozen, but if you don't have frozen you can still use fresh fruit and add in about a ½ cup of ice cubes.
- Frozen Mango Chunks: frozen mango is great for sweet and creamy smoothies.
- Non-Dairy Milk: I use unsweetened almond milk for this recipe. For an even creamier smoothie, you could also use light coconut milk.
- Non-Dairy Yogurt: I like almond milk Greek yogurt for a protein boost. The Kite Hill brand is my favorite.
- Orange Juice or Water: either option will help to thin out this smoothie. Orange juice enhances the flavor and adds some vitamin C, but feel free to use water, it won’t change or dilute the flavors at all.
- Chia Seeds: Add a boost of calcium, iron, omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and protein.
- Sweetener: This is totally optional. If you would like to boost the sweetness of this smoothie, I recommend using maple syrup or any other unrefined sweetener.
How to make the best Mango Pineapple Smoothie:
- Add the non-dairy milk, orange juice or water, yogurt, sweetener, chia seeds, frozen pineapple, and mango to a blender. Be sure to add your liquids first.
- Blend on medium until the frozen fruit starts to break down, then increase the speed to high and continue to blend until smooth.
- Enjoy! Drink your smoothie right away.
Adding Extra Nutrition to This Smoothie:
- Ground Flax Seeds: one tablespoon provides a good amount of protein, fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, and several vital vitamins and minerals.
- Hemp Seeds: a tablespoon of hempseeds is also a great source of omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and fiber.
- Greens: toss in a handful of spinach or kale for added nutrition. This won’t change the overall flavor of your smoothie. Feel free to use cooked or raw greens.
- Cauliflower: adding about a cup of frozen cauliflower is an excellent way to get more veggies in for the day and make the smoothie thick and creamy without changing the flavor.
- Protein: A few scoops of protein powder can also add a significant boost of protein to this smoothie. I recommend using a vanilla protein powder or a similar fruit flavor. You can also choose high-protein non-dairy milk. Soy and pea milk tend to have high amounts of protein per serving.
- Turmeric: known for its anti-inflammatory properties. Just be sure to add a pinch of black pepper to activate the turmeric.
