Mango And Choco-Cherry: 2 Wholesome Smoothies You Cannot Miss

Mango is the gift of summer. It’s rich in complex carbohydrates, dietary fibre, beta carotene, Vitamin C and plenty of other antioxidants. This thick creamy banana-mango smoothie with Greek yoghurt and milk could be a perfect breakfast moreover as a post-workout option. We will not add extra sugar to the smoothie, increasing the carbohydrate load. Instead, use ripe mangoes and bananas to sweeten the smoothie. Hung curd can also be used in place of Greek yoghurt. To make hung curd, put regular curd in a muslin cloth and let it sit overnight inside the fridge.

Cherry smoothie is just as delicious as it sounds. But have you ever thought of mixing your favourite cherry smoothie with some dark chocolate? Dark chocolates are unique. They’re suitable in taste and contain several nutrients, namely - iron, magnesium, copper, manganese, potassium, zinc and selenium - all of which have several functions in our body. This high-protein choco-cherry smoothie is a perfect pick for a post-workout snack and can also be taken as a meal when you are in a hurry and don’t have the time to take a full-course meal. This drink isn’t only high in protein and supplies enough complex carbs, energy, micro-nutrients and fibre. If you can’t get Greek yoghurt, hung curd can be used in place of that. The smoothie contains a decent amount of protein. However, if you would like to make it more protein-packed, you can use one scoop of vanilla or chocolate-flavoured protein powder.
