Ingredients
- 1.5 cups frozen mango chunks
- 0.5 cup unsweetened almond milk (or other non-dairy milk)
- 1 tsp ground turmeric
- 0.5 tsp fresh ginger, grated (optional)
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
- For topping: Fresh berries, sliced banana, shredded coconut, granola (certified GF)
Instructions
- 1
Combine the frozen mango chunks, unsweetened almond milk, ground turmeric, grated fresh ginger (if using), chia seeds, and honey or maple syrup (if using) in a high-powered blender. Ensure all ingredients are measured accurately for the best consistency.
- 2
Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and has a thick, ice-cream-like consistency. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides of the blender a few times to ensure everything is incorporated evenly. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
- 3
Pour the thick smoothie mixture into a bowl. The consistency should be firm enough to hold toppings without them sinking immediately.
- 4
Artfully arrange your desired toppings over the smoothie base. Consider a colorful assortment of fresh berries, sliced banana, shredded coconut, and a sprinkle of certified gluten-free granola for added texture and visual appeal. This step is where you can get creative with presentation.

Tips & Notes
- Any plant-based milk works here — oat milk (certified GF) gives the richest mouthfeel; almond milk keeps it lighter.
- Freeze overripe bananas in their peel; thaw on the counter and squeeze out the pulp for perfectly soft mash.
- Toast desiccated coconut in a dry pan over medium heat for 2–3 minutes, stirring, for a deeper flavor.
