Mango Spinach Smoothie

I know what you're thinking... "A spinach smoothie? Yuck!"  Think again!  This mango in this smoothie gives it such a nice tropical flavor and totally masks the spinach.  Yes, I said totally!  This version is nice and creamy and isn't too sweet - plus it only packs 165 calories which makes it great for either a snack or as a mini-meal (for those doing multiple low-cal meals per day).

1 individual container Dannon Oikos Greek Nonfat Plain Yogurt
1 cup Silk Almond Milk (unsweetened original)
1 cup fresh spinach
1/2 cup Dole Premium - Mango Chunks All Natural (Frozen)

Place all of the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.  That's it!

If you like yours a little sweeter or a little more tropical, you could always swap out the almond milk for 6oz of pineapple juice.  Just make sure to readjust the nutritional info in you're counting. :)
