Hi.

Welcome to my blog! I document my culinary adventures here.

Tropical mango banana smoothie

Tropical mango banana smoothie

I woke up to a dark and rainy sky today and it has been raining intermittently since this morning. We initially planned to go out for brunch but the ripening mangoes and bananas on my fruit basket wanted me to stay back and do something with them. I decided to prepare some tropical smoothie to take care of both - weather, and the excess produce at home! I love preparing smoothies, simple because they are easy, healthy and delicious, if one manages to combine the right things in the right proportion. 

My husband and brother loved the recipe, and since I had predicted so, I prepared double batches for them. Looks like the sun is back and I should head out to the farmer's market. Happy Saturday everyone!
