Mango Blueberry Ginger Smoothie

2 Servings | Difficulty: EASY

1 cup water
1 Cup Greek yoghurt
1/2 inch ginger root
Juice of half lemon
1 organic Banana
1 1/2 cups chopped mango
1/2 cup blueberries
2 tbsp flax seeds
1 cup frozen raspberries
1/2 cup ice

Put everything in order listed in a Vitamix or other high-powered blender.  If using a Vitamix, choose the “Frozen Desserts” setting and let that magic machine do the work!  Once the blender stops, check the consistency.  Add more water if you like a thinner smoothie or more ice if you want it frothier.

Jackie’s Tip ?:  Save old water bottles or other reusable containers to make your smoothie portable for the whole family.  Use a funnel to avoid a mess.   Healthy on the go!
