Also known affectionately as “Pink Flamango,” this strawberry mango smoothie was created by my very first Simple Green Smoothies team member, Dan Mottayaw. That was 8 years ago, and now he’s got a toddler who gulps this smoothie down! It warms my heart to see kids growing up on leafy greens + fruit, like this delicious strawberry mango smoothie recipe.

Powerhouse Smoothie Ingredient
Did you know that strawberries actually have more vitamin C than oranges? It’s true! These sweet berries shine in this strawberry mango smoothie recipe, both in flavor and in nutrients. They can be used in any berry recipe as a substitute.
Strawberries are also low in sugar + high in fiber, which makes them a great smoothie addition for anyone who is watching their blood sugar levels. The fiber helps avoid a blood sugar rush, as well as keep your levels more stable. They are naturally sweet, so they are a great sweet treat in a smoothie, or straight off the stem.

The Best Tropical Fruit
Okay, I know that statement is very subjective, but I really, really LOVE mango. I could eat them all day long and never tire of them – blended in this strawberry mango smoothie as well as freshly peeled.
Mango is like the tropical version of a peach. It’s juicy + sweet and chock full of vitamin A and fiber. Make sure and stand over the sink while eating a fresh one, because you’ll have juice dripping down your chin. No shame here! Add some mango to your smoothie to instantly get an island vibe going.
I usually buy frozen mango in bulk from Trader Joes or Costco because it’s cheaper than my local grocery store.

Delicious
Even though this smoothie is not among my favourite recipes from the challenges and/or the book, I made it anyway to benefit from all the goodness it contains. Next time I’ll try to remember to add in a few cherries to amp up the flavour.
Wasn’t really prepared to make this smoothie. Dressed and out of the door at 5:50 am to get ingredients from grocery store. I didn’t get upset when I arrived at the grocery store and there were no fresh strawberries, or blueberries. (This happens to me almost every time when I need something specific for a recipe I want to try.) There was someone stocking produce so I asked if they had any in the back. Yes! They did and everything was on sale! I got everything home and blended enough for three servings, two for me and one for hubby to have when he decided get up? I enjoyed this mixture so much…this is only day two, but I believe I’m hooked.
Way to persevere!!! So glad you got the ingredients you needed and you loved it!
I think this would be better with some fresh strawberries, as my frozen ones weren’t very flavorful so I didn’t taste the strawberry much.
So yummy. Just the right amount of sweet. I added a bit more almond milk than called for to thin it out. But still super thick. Love it.
I made mine a complete meal with almond butter and coconut oil. Yum!
I found this smoothie too bland. I think another fruit with a stronger flavor may have boosted it for me.
Delicious! Loved it! It was a bit thick so added an extra splash of almond milk. Great breakfast meal with added chia seeds.
I think I would have liked this recipe better if I used fresh instead of frozen strawberries. Still good, just not as sweet as I would like.
Loved it! Tasted great and chocked full of Vitamin C.
Delicious! I love fruit smoothies for breakfast and I’m always willing to try new recipes. This one is light, yet creamy and great fruit flavor.
Yum..
Delicious!
Great recipe, but I found I had to add more liquid to my frozen fruits since the mixture seized in my blender. The flavor is great and the strawberry really shined through in this smoothie. Would make again, but add more liquid.
This smoothie is so delicious. It had a great taste of strawberry. I’m surprised at how well the greens are hidden in here. I did have to add some more liquid to make it drinkable. I think my blender is too strong in that respect
Really tasty! Loaded with Vitamin C. Great way to start the day.
This is SO good!
