How To – Amy’s Cherry Mango Smoothie

Whenever need a quick on-the-go breakfast I think of smoothies. Wait, that is a total lie, I think of breakfast sandwiches. But I can’t have one every day, because that would be…bad? Yes. That would be bad. So, for an everyday, healthy, on-the-go breakfast, a smoothie is the best choice. For years I brought smoothies to work in mason jars. Some days the smoothie was a success – colourful and fruity. Other days it was a muddy mess (too much protein powder and spinach).

Two weeks ago I finally stumbled upon the perfect smoothie combination. I have made it almost every day for the past two weeks and even if the proportions aren’t exactly the same as the day before it is still beautiful and delicious.
