Instructions
Dice the mango flesh, keeping a few pretty cubes aside for garnish.
Add the mango, protein powder, milk, yogurt, turmeric, cinnamon, honey and ice to a blender.
Blend on high for 60 seconds until thick and completely creamy.
Taste and add a touch more honey if your mango is not very sweet.
Pour into 2 tall glasses.

This mango turmeric protein smoothie is sunshine in a glass. Ripe mango brings the tropical sweetness, warming turmeric and cinnamon keep it interesting underneath, and vanilla protein turns a fruit drink into a real meal. It tastes like dessert, but every glass packs 31 grams of protein at 342 calories, so it genuinely fuels healthy weight gain instead of just tasting good. Eight minutes, zero cooking, blender to glass — the breakfast I make when I want to feel good without thinking about it.
