Mango, Strawberry and Toasted Coconut Smoothie

With a double hit of coconut, fresh mango and strawberries, this refreshing smoothie packs a coconut punch.

This thick and refreshing smoothie gets its tropical taste from coconut milk, toasted shredded coconut and fresh mango.

Lime juice gives this smoothie a touch of tart citrus flavor, and strawberries are added for an extra layer of sweetness and texture.

When buying fresh strawberries, I try to pick the container of strawberries with leaves that look fresh and green without any dry, brown or wilted spots.

So often I’ll have high hopes for making recipes using strawberries and then I get too busy to make them.

Then I know it’s time to make a smoothie to use up the berries.

In this smoothie, the coconut and mango are a nice complement to the strawberries.

In combination they taste wonderful together.
