    After a morning yoga session and trip to the Farmers Market, I decided that I was overdue for a kale-filled smoothie. This one really hit the spot - the mango and banana made it perfectly sweet without any additional honey, sugar, or agave nectar, and the chia seeds give this green beauty a big boost of omega-3, antioxidants, fiber and vitamins. If you don't have frozen mango, you can throw a handful of ice in there to bring it all together.

      This sounds delicious! I have tried something similar with pineapple instead of mango, but definitely need to keep my mangoes closer 🙂

        I don't know that I've put pineapples in a smoothie yet, but that sounds great, too!
