Mango-Coconut Green Smoothie
The recipe demands merely 5 minutes, and it serves one person.

One quart cup of low-fat cottage cheese
A cup of chopped spinach/kale

My affection for this smoothie stems from its inclusion of mango. Blend mango, banana, and spinach with coconut water and cottage cheese (rich in protein), and you have a delectable smoothie ready. Sprinkle in some flaxseed to introduce the essential Omega 3 fats our bodies require, promoting digestive wellness too.

Bananas and kale are renowned for their sleep-inducing properties, as is yogurt.
