Mango pineapple banana smoothie

  As a kid, I never liked mangoes. In fact it was one of those fruits that I despised and my mom who loves mangoes used to say, "you may be one of those exceptions in the world who doesn't like a fruit like mango". Fast forward to today, I find myself in the same situation. I suddenly developed a deep affinity for mangoes after marriage, but both my kids won't eat the fruit. Somehow these kids don't mind if it is added to smoothies. So that is how I make them consume fruits. So if you have a picky eater, try this smoothie. This is a simple vegan mango, banana, pineapple smoothie with almond milk. All you need is: 1 mango 1 banana 1 cup pineapple 1& 1/2 cups almond milk (use one cup if you like thicker smoothie) All you need to do is peel the fruits, cut and throw them in the blender. Add almond milk and blend until you get a perfect smoothie. Enjoy the healthy vegan smoothie. Tips: You can use frozen fruit to get a thicker smoothie. It is also a good time save...
