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.

Green smoothie my life!!! It’s totally change my life I feel increase energy!!!
The smoothie was pretty good. I think the smoothie needs to be sweeter. Add another half of a banana.
It was good 🙂
I found this one a little bland, I kind of wanted something a little tart so I added a little bit of unsweetened Lemonade for a kick of tartness and I loved it!
I found this one not as sweet as the basic. I am a sucker for sweets. I am trying to reduce it though. I think next time I’ll add a 1/2 of banana.
Another favorite. Thanks for making it easier to get fruits and veggies into my kids diet too!
First time making this smoothie, will make it again.
The strawberry flavor really stands out! I liked it!
I found this one a bit plain for my taste, I ended up putting 1/4 cup of cranberries and half a banana in it.
The taste is good. I was, of course, expecting a nice pink coloured smoothie but of course with the addition of spinach it will never be pink just a brownish green. Feels like it needs something, maybe a banana? Not sure. but overall it’s enjoyable and there’s no denying I’m putting something nutritious in my body.
Good smoothie: however leaves me a little hungry after a few hours. I’m sticking to this though ‼️
I love these smoothies. I’ve been blending smoothies for several years. These smoothies are simple and so nutritious. Even my husband drinks them. I’m looking forward to today’s (#2) smoothie with strawberries.
The pink flamingo was very good. Thicker than day 1 but still tasted good to me.
I traded coconut milk instead of almond milk which I think may have overpowered the other ingredients but I love the creaminess of this smoothie.
Tried your beginners luck smoothie yesterday and found it to be a different taste. I used frozen mango and pineapple and a fresh banana and it resulted in a slightly cool drink. Next time believe I will add a little ice to it to make it a little colder and not quite so concentrated. Not a bad start to a new experience, Looking forward to the trying the rest of the smoothies.
Another delicious smoothie. Thanks for encouraging us in this habit.
