THE SAVVY SOYBEAN

I’ve been spending some serious face time at the new Trader Joe’s on 72nd. In short, this place is magic. Luna Bars for 99¢…boxes of veggie burgers for $2…madness, I tell you! So when I came across notoriously expensive frozen mango chunks for a mere $2, I had to grab a few bags.

This recipe was born from the notion that certain things just have to taste great together. Frozen mango blended with banana and cinnamon makes for a super creamy, exotic tasting treat. It also has a ton of vitamins to kick-start your day. In the words of Ina Garten, “How bad could that be?”...

Spiced Mango Smoothie
serving size: 1

15 chunks frozen mango
1 banana
3/4 cup almond milk
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon

Blend until creamy and enjoy. Happy Sunday!

So simple, and it looks so delicious.
I'm going to have to make some of that in my KITCHEN.

I really like mango... do you think I could add 16 chunks?

I was in the Trader Joe's near me in Downtown Brooklyn the other night, and they were OUT OF CHICKEN. Like, absolutely no chicken whatsoever. No pork, either. And only tiny amounts of beef. Plenty of tofu, though! What a crazy world we live in.

That smoothie is beautiful, though.

I'm on a serious mango kick these days. I love mango in smoothie form. I am waiting for the summer when Pakistani and Indian mangoes will be available here, if you get a chance to find them, do pick them up. They're amazing.

I would love this smoothie!
Thanks for visiting my blog, I hope you blog about your journey into raw too. I'd love to hear your experience. Yesterday was the end of my month of being raw. I haven't had any cooked food yet; and I plan to stay 90% raw, especially through the summer. I love how I feel!
Good Luck!
