Mango Banana Berry Smoothies

I'm not really a breakfast person. I'm a "sleep in as late as possible and rush out the door" person.  So these smoothies are a great "grab and go" breakfast idea that's healthy and filling for that mid-morning snack.  We make a huge batch of smoothies, stick them in small jars and place them in the freezer for the week.  Then in the morning, we pop them out of the freezer and take them to work.  By 10:00 or so, they are just melted enough to enjoy.  Everyone at work will be so jealous of your healthful and ingenious ways.  Enjoy!


Mango Banana Berry Smoothies
Makes: 9 small smoothies

Ingredients:
2 fresh mangoes, pealed and chopped
5 ripe bananas, pealed and broken up
6 large organic strawberries, stems removed
3/4 cup organic almond milk (I used almond/coconut blend, it's amazing)
1 cup Kefir (super good for your immune system, you can find it in the organic dairy section of your grocery store.  I used strawberry flavored. You can also substitute with yogurt if you want.)
1/2 cup orange juice

Directions:
Place the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.  Delicious! You can also place in the freezer until ready to eat.
