Broccoli Smoothie
Description
The Broccoli Smoothie recipe uses frozen broccoli, banana, and mango chunks combined with your choice of milk and vanilla protein powder to produce a thick, smooth drink. Blending the ingredients until creamy creates a consistent texture that balances the earthy taste of broccoli with the sweetness of banana and mango. The frozen fruits help chill the smoothie and add natural sweetness without needing extra sugar.
Because the smoothie tends to be thick, you can thin it with extra milk according to personal preference. Its creamy texture and mild flavor can make it a practical way to incorporate vegetables and protein into your diet. Serve immediately to enjoy its fresh, cold consistency.
The recipe allows for flexibility with the milk and protein powder types used. Adding cinnamon is an option for a hint of warm spice. Leftover smoothie can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours, though it may thicken over time and might need stirring or dilution before drinking.
