This Jamba Juice kale smoothie blends orange juice, frozen mango, a frozen banana, kale and chia seeds into a creamy, citrusy drink. Frozen banana makes it thick and slushy with no dairy, and it is ready in 5 minutes.
Frozen bananas are an inexpensive and healthy way to add creaminess to smoothies without using dairy. Make sure to always have a hand of bananas (5-6 bananas) frozen so you'll be ready at all times to blend up a smoothie. The bananas need to be yellow. Simply peel the bananas, place in ziplock bag in a single layer, and freeze 5 to 6 hours on a flat surface in the freezer.
