Cherry Mango Carrot Smoothie with Greek Yogurt

A delicious cherry mango carrot smoothie recipe made with cherries, mangos, carrots, vanilla, almond butter, almond milk, and greek yogurt. It is FULL of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and protein and makes for a wonderful breakfast smoothie, smoothie bowl, or snack.

This has been my new favorite smoothie creation of the summer! I love that it has both fruit and veggies inside of it (though you can’t taste the carrots at all).

It’s creamy, and has pops of cherry, mango, and almond butter flavors. It also has that yummy tartness that smoothies with greek yogurt have.

The flavor combination is amazingly refreshing and delicious. My two year old calls it “ice-cream” and always licks her bowl clean.

I have been on the hunt for yummy smoothies without bananas because my husband is allergic to bananas.

I usually use mangos to replace the sweetness and thickness that bananas bring to smoothies. My go-to smoothie without bananas is my wild blueberry smoothie, but I wanted something with summer fruit inside it, so I started experimenting.

As I wondered what goes well in a mango smoothie, I started adding ingredients like cherries and greek yogurt and ended up with this bomb delicious smoothie.

And now that I’ve made it several times, I’ve decided I need to share the recipe here.

Ingredients needed:

• Frozen mango– you’ll need frozen mango chunks for this recipe. The mango adds a natural sweetness to the smoothie.
• Frozen cherries– frozen dark sweet cherries work best here. I buy the ones from trader joes. They add the best summery flavor.
• Almond butter– any nut butter would work but I prefer the taste that almond butter adds here.
• Vanilla extract– this can be optional, so if you don’t have any on hand, you don’t need to add it.
• Almond milk– any milk would work.
• Carrots– I used large carrots here. You don’t need to peel them if you wash them, but you can.
• Greek yogurt– you can also use non-dairy yogurt if you need to be dairy-free. Greek yogurt adds great protein and tart creamy flavor.

How to make the best smoothie with mango, carrot and cherry

It’s really too easy. You just add all of the ingredients to a blender and mix until smooth.

If your smoothie is too thick for your taste, you can add more milk.

How to serve it

In a cup or a bowl!

If I’m drinking this smoothie in a cup, I like to add chia seeds or flax seeds on top. You can also add them to the blender as well.

If I’m turning this smoothie into a smoothie bowl, then I like topping my smoothie bowl with chia seeds, cacao nibs, and fresh berries.

It’s nice having a smoothie bowl without banana ( especially if you have an allergy), and this cherry mango carrot smoothie works really well as a smoothie bowl base.
