Banana Mango Yogurt Smoothie
Whether you’re looking for a healthy breakfast recipe or just a quick on-the-go snack, this 3 ingredient Banana Mango Yogurt Smoothie made with fresh fruit and Greek yogurt will help you live a better lifestyle. This recipe does not have ice or additional sugar added.

I don’t get how people can eat junk food all the time.
There was one girl at my last office job who would almost always eat McDonald’s for breakfast and Chinese food for lunch (or so it seemed).
Don’t get me wrong – I love McDonald’s burgers and General Tso’s chicken, but after eating grease and carbs for a week, my body rebels.
I crave fruit and vegetables and think of how to incorporate them more into my meals.
Veggies are a no brainer for me, but I’m not a pick-up-an-apple-and-eat kind of girl. Give me broccoli. Give me carrots. But oranges? Apples? Bananas?
I want to thank whoever invented fruit smoothies because I made Banana Mango Yogurt Smoothies. Fruit doesn’t have to be boring anymore!
Smoothies were a treat for me as a kid. They were always expensive because of the fresh fruit, so I rarely bought them.
Even in college, coffee was much cheaper than a smoothie.
However, I would treat myself every few months so I didn’t completely miss out. Then I started making smoothies at home.
I wanted to make it as healthy as possible because I know some smoothies have a whole lot of sugar added.
Even some juices you get from the juice aisle aren’t as healthy as you think with high fructose corn syrup and 10% real fruit juice. Side note – go for the juices in the fresh produce section. Make sure the label says “made with 100% fruit juice”.

What fruit goes with banana in a smoothie?
Obviously by the title, mango and banana go well together. Mango is one of my favorite tropical fruits and is often juicy enough on its own to not have to add extra liquid to your smoothie.
You want to pick a juicy fruit to go with the banana because you need that juiciness to smooth out your drink.
Some excellent juicy fruits beside mango are pineapple, raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, and peaches.
How do you make a smoothie without ice?
I’m not a huge fan of ice in my drinks unless it’s absolutely necessary. Luckily for these smoothies, you don’t need ice!
I used frozen banana slices to replace the ice cubes so your smoothie doesn’t get watered down. That means you can taste the fruit flavor even more.
Frozen bananas also give your smoothie a creamier texture. When you blend frozen bananas, they turn into a faux banana ice cream. This means your smoothie will have a milkshake-like consistency without any ice cream involved.
I highly recommend keeping frozen banana slices in your freezer so you can make this drink at a moment’s notice.
How do you thin out a smoothie?
Normally you’d use milk or juice to thin out a smoothie. However, your mango should be juicy and sweet enough on its own to create a smoothie consistency without additional sugar.
However, if your smoothie is too thick, gradually add some milk or mango juice until desired consistency.
How do you make a mango banana smoothie without yogurt?
Sometimes I don’t have any Greek yogurt on hand, but I almost always have milk!
Add the mango, bananas, and a little bit of milk then blend. I don’t have an exact amount for you, but keep adding milk in small parts until you’re happy with the consistency.
The smoothie won’t be as creamy without Greek yogurt, but luckily frozen banana slices are creamy once blended.
Don’t have milk? Use fruit juice, preferably 100% real fruit juice from your store’s fresh produce section.

I’m obsessed with smoothies- have one every morning for breakfast or its a bad morning. ;)
Love the sound of this smoothie. Feels kinda tropical for these frigid New York mornings!
Bananas and mangoes are the most common things in my smoothies! I’ve never thought to keep ti simple with just them and yogurt though.
I love the idea of freezing the yogurt! I know when I worked at Baskin Robbins in my teens we’d keep the milk for milkshakes slushy. Or maybe the temp of the fridge was too cold . . . who knows?
This smoothie looks so tropical and simple–just 3 ingredients!
I love to use frozen berries in my smoothies, and go a little nuts when berries are in season freezing trays of them and transferring to bags in my fruit and vegetable freezer. It’s always sad when we use the last bag of berries, especially if it’s April and we know it will be a few months before we can get more.
Thanks!
I stop eating fast food a long time ago (except sub sandwiches at a good deli around the corner). I still have not become a fan of smoothies. I think it is a texture thing. However, if I did, this flavor combo sounds wonderful. Lovely photos as always!
This looks delicious! I had a rather large lunch and was searching for a good dinnertime smoothie, and I think I found it! Thank you, and your pictures are beautiful. :-)
I Like veggies, but I am totally a fruit girl! This looks so yummy!
I’m the smoothie queen in my house. I make and drink them before my exercise sessions or biking. They fill me up without making me nauseous. This smoothis sounds absolutely yum!
Yum, this smoothie looks so creamy and delicious. I am SO making this tomorrow!

Yeah, I can relate with you. I love McMuffin from McD, but always feeling greasy after eating it. And everyday? Definitely need a major detox. Banana + mango + yogurt – this is lovely!
Banana mango is actually my favorite smoothie combo with lots of cinnamon. I keep peeled bananas in my freezer but I can’t get mangoes around here till summer.
We are huge smoothie fans over here and I just love this recipe…bananas and mangos are two of my favs!
This looks delish! My mom got me a bullet a year ago and I’m finally breaking it out and making myself some smoothies. I used to get them from taco bell when I was still in college and man.. I’ve missed them!
We had a smoothie bar at my college, so it was hard to walk by and not buy one! I ended up stealing er borrowing my parent’s blender in college so I could make my own.
Do you recommend freezing the mango and banana, as well? I have all three ingredients on hand (frozen mango, plain greek yogurt, and fresh bananas) and would love to try this since my bananas are a bit too ripe for me to just eat. Thanks for sharing!
You can if you want to! I know some people like to use ice cubes. Frozen fruit would act the same way. I personally don’t like ice in my drinks (and usually my fruit isn’t frozen). Don’t freeze the yogurt though. One time I did and it wouldn’t come out of the container. So just stick to frozen fruit :)
My current go to recipe for smoothies! No sugar added and so healthy! Had to add a splash of milk because of the Greek yogurt I used, but not the authors fault! Thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love the tip to use frozen banana vs ice — such a fresh and tasty smoothie!
Thanks, Jenn! I find it’s more flavorful that way.
Carla, I am so excited to see this recipe! I have frozen cherries in my freezer. Do you know about how many cups a large mango has? I will sub in cherries. Thank you so much, take care.
It’s about 1 cup of fruit.
