Desperate for a new smoothie, I came up with this concoction for my Magic Bullet. You can use a blender, food processor or... jeez, a mortar and pestle. Refreshing, easy and rather healthy to boot. Add a bit of ginger ale at the end for a fizzling treat. An easier way to peel kiwi fruit is to slice a layer off one end and scoop out the flesh.

Ingredients

  • 1 kiwi fruit, peeled and cut into chunks
  • 1/3 C. mango chunks (I used canned)
  • 1/3 C. mango nectar (you can also use the juice syrup from canned mangoes)
  • 1/3 C. plain, full-fat yogurt
  • 1 tsp. ground flax seeds
  • 4-5 small ice cubes (small enough for the Magic Bullet to beat to a bloody pulp)
  • Mint sprig, to garnish, optional

Directions

Pulse first 5 ingredients in blender or bullet until well mixed. Add ice and continue to pulse until ice is crushed to your desired coarseness.Pour into glasses and garnish, if desired, with a mint sprig.
