Banana Mango Smoothie

This is a simple smoothie with lemon & parsley to give it a little zing!

Ingredients:

1 Cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
1 Banana
1 TBS protein powder
1 cup of fresh parsley
1 cup of frozen mango
1/2 inch turmeric root (fresh), peeled and chopped
  or a pinch of dried turmeric
1 squeeze of lemon juice  (1/4 slice)
1 TBS hemp seeds

Directions:

Add the ingredients in the order listed. By putting the frozen fruit on top of your green ingredients, they don't tend to get stuck around the blades and freeze up the blender.  Blend in a vitamix or blender till done.

Fresh turmeric can stain your hands, cutting board, knives (particularly ceramic knives).  To clean, use a cleaner like VIM, or Barkeepers Friend to get the color out.  The fresh turmeric adds a nice taste to the smoothie!
