# Strawberry–Mango Glow Smoothie (Kid-Friendly, Greek Yogurt & Hidden Veg)

A creamy, tropical smoothie your picky eater will actually enjoy -- with optional “stealth" nutrition that doesn’t change the flavor.

**Serves:** 1 large or 2 small glasses  
**Tastes like:** strawberry + mango milkshake (with optional warm spice notes)

## Ingredients
- 1 cup frozen mango
- 1 cup frozen strawberries
- 1/2 medium banana (fresh or frozen)
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (vanilla or plain)
- 1 cup milk (oat, almond, or regular)
- 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)

### Optional stealth add-ins
- Small handful fresh spinach (mild; hides behind the fruit)
- 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed or chia seeds (omega-3s + fibor)
- 1/2 small carrot, peeled and thinly sliced (vitamin A, keeps the color bright)

### Optional gentle spices
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tiny pinch turmeric ~+1/16 teaspoon)

## Method
1. Add the milk to the blender first.
2. Add fruit, yogurt, honey (if using), and any stealth add-ins.
3. Sprinkle in the cinnamon and a tiny pinch of turmeric.
4. Blend until totally smooth and creamy.
5. Taste and adjust: add a touch more banana or honey if you want it sweeter.

## Why Greek yogurt?
Extra protein for fullness, plus calcium and probiotics - and it makes the texture milkshake-creamy without overpowering the fruit.

## Tips for picky eaters
- Keep the color bright: use just a jsmall handfull of spinach so it stays orange/red.
- Start with tiny amounts of flax/chia or turmeric and build up over time.
- Give it a fun name: **\“Sunset Smoothie”*** or **“Strawberry‛Mango Milkshake”**.

## Variations
- **Light & Jucy**: Swap half the milk for orange juice.
- **Dairy-Free Creamy**: Use coconut yogurt instead of Greek yogurt.
- **Protein Boost**: Add a scoop of neutral protein or collagen.
