I never really loved Yogurt as a kid, but this mixture is something I have several times a week. So I’m going to show you how I make my Mango Faux-Gurt recipe. It’s fast to make, creamy and delicious and it goes perfectly with my Oil-Free Granola. Or you can mix it with fruit – I do both! If you want a variation on this check out my Banana Faux-Gurt and Mixed-Berry Faux-Gurt.
Another way that you can think of this is as a chia pudding that is crazy healthy for you. It’s packed with protein and fibre and is incredibly rich in both iron and calcium. If you’re looking for a perfect post-workout breakfast you’re going to want to include this as part of it. You can always omit the protein powder if you want and it will reduce the calories, but it will also reduce the protein. Feel free to use whatever brand you like. I’m a big fan of LeanFit’s Plant-Based Protein.
I always make this as a single serving so it’s fresh, but there’s no reason that you couldn’t make a huge batch of this in a blender and then keep it in the fridge for the rest of the week. It’ll easily keep for a few days. I like to use a magic bullet, but you can make this in any high-speed blender like a Vita-Mix.
While this is the standard base I use, I’ve been known to jazz it up with some cinnamon powder or cocoa powder from time to time. I’ve also used other fruits as the base, so stay tuned and I’ll post those variations as well.
This might be the thing I make the most in my kitchen. But now that you know how to make this Mango Faux-Gurt Recipe you’ll always have a healthy and nutrient filled way to start the day. Smash it into your face today!
