Peachy Mango Lime Smoothie
Servings 2
Ingredients
- 1 ripe peach, pitted (or use frozen)
- 1 cup frozen mango (or use fresh)
- ¾-1 cup water
- ½ cup cottage cheese
- 2 tbsp almond butter
- 2 tbsp lime juice
- Pinch of salt
- Note: ~ this smoothie is on the thicker side. If you want it thinner, just add a bit more water.
- Protein boost! ~ The smoothie has about 11g of protein per serving. Add an extra ½ cup of cottage cheese to bump it to 18g or a scoop of protein powder to hit that 30g of morning protein. You’ll need to add more liquid to balance out the added thickness from more cottage cheese.
Items you can prep ahead (optional)
- Make the smoothie
Instructions
- In a high speed blender, add all of the ingredients. Blend on high until totally smooth. If the smoothie is too thick to blend, add a bit more water.
Notes
Substitutions:
- To make dairy-free/vegan, sub cottage cheese with a dairy-free or vegan yogurt. Alternatively, you could just add an extra tablespoon or two of almond butter.
- Any tropical fruit can be used in place of mango.
- Sub cottage cheese with Greek yogurt. It won’t be quite as thick and creamy and will be a bit more tangy - start with just 1 tablespoon of lime juice.
Storage:
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Leftovers + Repurposing:
- Enjoy straight out of the fridge. To thin it out, just stir in a bit of water.
- Eat it as a smoothie bowl - top with peaches, nuts, granola, etc…
