back again with my smoothie and meal recipe for you, i love doing these weekly segments, finding different smoothies and meals and letting you guys in on the yummy recipes.
Back at the gym properly too, i have been slacking so bad but i need to pick myself up and get back into it, no pain no gain as they say ha ha. Went extra hard today because i had a day off, so i was in the gym 9:30-11:00am, and did a pretty good work out, also spoke to one of the trainers thee and she told me a little workout to do after i have done my cardio (for those interested i will share this in a separate post on Wednesday)
Anyway onto the recipes starting with the smoothie 😋
Today's smoothie is.......... Frozen Mango and Kale smoothie! (perfect for these surprise sunny days!)
This Smoothie is amazing, not only as a drink but also as a dessert. Adding more mango will give you a thicker consistency that can be served with a teaspoon. As unusual as it sounds, this combination is delicious!
