Though fresh or frozen fruit both work in this banana-mango smoothie recipe, opt for frozen if you want a thicker, creamier consistency. To make this dairy-free or vegan, feel free to swap in almond or soy milk.

Ingreadients:

• 1 cup milk
• 2 ripe mangoes, peeled, pitted, and cut into 2-in. pieces (about 1½ cups) or 12 oz. frozen mango chunks
• 1 fresh or frozen ripe banana, cut into 2-in. pieces
•  One ½-in. piece turmeric, peeled and coarsely chopped

Direction

1. To a blender, add the milk, mangoes, banana, turmeric, and ½ cup of ice cubes. Blend until smooth, pour into a glass, and serve immediately.
