Suggested Swaps + Healthy Additions

This mango spinach smoothie is easy to customize based on taste and nutrition goals.

• Use unsweetened almond milk: Swap 1:1 to have a creamy dairy-free alternative to coconut water.
• Swap mango: Use frozen pineapple for a bright, tangy tropical twist or frozen peaches for a low sugar alternative.
• Leave out the spinach: if you prefer a fruit smoothies with protein.
• Sweeter: Add 1/2 banana for natural sweetness and potassium while thickening the smoothie. Mix in some pineapple for extra sweetness and vitamin C. You can also add a squirt of honey if that’s all you have on hand.
• Add healthy fats: Almond butter or peanut butter adds richness and helps keep you full longer yet will drastically change the flavor.
• Extra nutrients: Add chia seeds or flaxseeds for fiber and omega-3s and top with coconut flakes or granola for a nice texture and sweetness. Add more protein powder, Greek yogurt, or hemp seeds for additional protein.
• Creamier texture: Use more avocado or almond butter for a thicker smoothie. If you prefer a smoothie bowl, skip the coconut water and blend the orange first to create an orange juice.
