Recipe
Ingredients
- 1½ cups frozen mango pieces
- 1 packed cup baby spinach
- 1 large kale leaf, stem removed
- Small handful mint leaves, plus extra to serve
- ¼ large Lebanese cucumber
- 1 cup chilled water or green tea
- Small handful pistachios
Method
- Place all ingredients, except pistachios, in blender and mix until smooth and well combined.
- Pour into 2 glasses and top with roughly chopped pistachios and some mint leaves.
- Tip: To supercharge your smoothie, use 1 cup chilled green tea instead of plain water. Green tea has been shown to help speed up your metabolism and increase fat burning and weight loss. Add a small teaspoon of matcha green tea or 1 tsp of spirulina or super greens powder to boost your immune and skin health. Try adding ½ small avocado for extra heart-healthy mono-unsaturated fats and beta-carotene.
