My Recipe Variation Ideas For You & Notes

In case you don’t have some of the ingredients this recipe needs, here are some other options for you:

  • If you don’t mind bananas, use bananas instead of mango.
  • You can use fresh pineapple if you don’t have frozen, but make sure you add a couple of ice cubes in the blender.
  • Coconut water can be hard to find sometimes, so you can use plain water or coconut milk instead
  • Instead of peanut butter, you can use almond butter.

Add-Ins:

  1. Omega-3s Boost: Add a tablespoon of chia seeds for extra protein, fiber, and omega-3s
  2. Yogurt: If you are not dairy-free, adding 1/2 cup of thick yogurt will not only make the smoothie creamier but also richer in protein.
  3. Make It More Filling: Use 1/2 small avocado for a thicker, more filling smoothie.
