Mint, Mango + Lime Green Smoothie Bowl
Getting 30 grams of protein in the first meal of the day is a smart way to start the day as it anchors the appetite and tells your body that you’re ready for action. Protein-rich breakfasts have been shown to improve satiety, support muscle maintenance and growth, and stabilize blood sugar levels throughout the day.
We find this combination of mint, mango, and lime to be a refreshing take on a smoothie bowl that’s rich in fiber, protein, and the right amount of fat to keep you satiated all morning long. The ingredients provide numerous health benefits:
Mango: High in vitamins A and C, which are essential for immune function and skin health.
Mint: Aids in digestion and has anti-inflammatory properties.
Lime: Packed with vitamin C and antioxidants that boost the immune system.
Kale: A nutrient-dense leafy green that provides fiber, vitamins, and minerals.
Grass-fed Whey Protein: Offers a complete amino acid profile, supporting muscle repair and growth.
Plant Protein: A great alternative for those who prefer plant-based options, offering balanced nutrition and a great source of fiber.
Collagen: Supports skin, hair, nail, and joint health.
Cashew Butter: Adds healthy fats that keep you full and provides a creamy texture.
