Health Benefits Of Kale
Kale is one of the greens that is loaded with powerful antioxidants and is rich in beta carotene.
It is anti-inflammatory and helps reduce blood pressure.
It is also a great source of calcium, vitamin C, and K and it helps to lower cholesterol thus reducing the risk of heart diseases.
This mango kale smoothie recipe is a great way to include this superfood in your diet and I make sure to do it very often.
Ingredients

This vitamin and antioxidant-packed green smoothie recipe is prepared with a few ingredients – Mango, Kale, Banana, Yogurt, Milk, and Honey.
Mango – Use ripe and juicy fresh mangoes. If mangoes are not the season, you can also use canned mango puree or frozen mangoes.
The canned puree is available online or in any Indian grocery store near you.
Frozen mango chunks are available in the freeze section of any supermarket. Buy them in bulk from Costco to save the cost.
Kale – Use fresh or frozen kale. There is no need to massage the kale as we are anyways going to blend it.
Fresh kale keeps fresh for a long time in the refrigerator. Make sure to remove the hard stem if using fresh kale leaves. I like to buy it in bulk and use it throughout the week.
If using frozen kale, add it directly to the blender, there is no need to thaw it.
Banana – Banana adds a nice creamy and thick texture along with adding a subtle sweetness. You can also make this healthy smoothie without the banana.
Honey – If the sweetness from mangoes and bananas is enough for you, then skip adding honey to the smoothie. You can also use other sweeteners like maple syrup or sugar-free substitutes like stevia and monk fruit.
Milk & Yogurt – Milk and plain yogurt are added for extra creaminess and to adjust the consistency. If you like the smoothie to be nice and thick, you can avoid adding milk.
You can replace plain yogurt with Greek yogurt.
Add healthy fats like almond butter, peanut butter, avocado, etc to this smoothie to make it more nutritious.
Add a scoop of vanilla protein powder f you are having it as a pre or post-workout snack.
How To Make Mango Kale Smoothie
Preparation
Peel, slice and freeze 1 large banana.
Peel, chop and freeze 1 large mango.
Separate the kale leaves from the hard stems and tear the leaves into small pieces. We will need approximately 1 cup of packed leaves.
Make The Smoothie
Add the 1 peeled, sliced, and frozen large frozen banana, 1 large peeled, chopped, and frozen mango, 1 cup. (packed) kale leaves, ½ cup plain yogurt, 1 cup milk, and 1 tablespoon honey to a blender jar or a food processor.
Note – If your blender is not powerful enough to process frozen produce, let the banana and mango thaw a bit.

Blend until smooth.
Divide the mango kale smoothie between two serving glasses and enjoy immediately.
This smoothie tastes best when served fresh, though leftovers will keep covered in the refrigerator for 24 hours.

Frequently Asked Questions
You can make it vegan by replacing dairy milk with any plant-based milk like soy milk, almond milk, coconut milk, etc. Coconut water, pineapple juice, or orange juice are also great vegan replacement for milk.
You can add coconut yogurt or another vegan yogurt in place of plain yogurt. Also, skip adding honey or use maple syrup instead.
Reduce the quantity of milk and make a thicker version of this smoothie. Transfer it to a wide bowl and then top it with your favorite toppings such as diced fruits, muesli, granola, chia seeds, coconut flakes, seeds, or nuts of your choice.
Sometimes, I also like to add some edible flowers to beautify my smoothie bowls, especially when I am serving them to my guests.

Replace kale with baby spinach or add other fruits like peaches, apple, strawberry, raspberry, blueberry, avocado, pineapple, kiwi, etc.
An inch of fresh ginger adds a lovely zing to green smoothies. You can also add a pinch of ground turmeric for all its health benefits.
Storage Suggestions
Make this smoothie fresh for the best result. As you can prep a night before and freeze the fruits, it only takes 5 minutes to come together or even less than that.
Leftovers can be stored in a mason jar or a covered glass jar in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
