This smoothie tasted much better than it looks. If you make it you will need to add some sort of juice to make it thinner – maybe orange juice would work and then you wouldn’t have to worry about the seeds in an orange. I didn’t add any juice and it was really really thick (too thick to even drink through the straw!).

(this makes one serving)
1 papaya
1 mango
handful spinach
1 orange (be careful of the seeds)
Directions:
In a Vita-Mix blender, add all ingredients.
Blend on high until smooth.
