Pineapple Mango Chili Smoothie

Chili powder and Cajun seasoning add a kick to this tropical smoothie.

Ingredients:

1 medium to large banana
1/4 to 1/2 cup chunk pineapple with juice
1/4 to 1/2 cup cubed fresh or frozen mango
1/2 to 3/4 cup Greek yogurt
1 tbsp ground flax seeds
1 tbsp ground chia seeds
1 tbsp shelled hemp hearts
Chili Powder
Cajun Seasoning

Add the pineapple with juice and the sliced banana to the blender and blend until smooth. Next add the mango and blend again until smooth. If the mixture is too thick with frozen mango, add some additional pineapple juice.

Next add the Greek yogurt, flax, chia, hemp and blend again until smooth. Now add your chili powder and Cajun seasoning to taste. Note that most Cajun seasonings have salt in them so you'll want to start with less and add more to taste to avoid making your smoothy too salty.

Enjoy!
