As part of our Simple and Nutritious Recipes for Teens series, this smoothie bowl makes healthy eating easy and fun – without any fuss in the kitchen.

Why This Bowl is a Brain + Body Boost

Full of Power-Packed Nutrients: Mangoes and other fresh fruits are loaded with antioxidants, vitamins like vitamin C and A, and minerals that help support the immune system and overall health. These nutrients fight off sickness and contribute to glowing skin and sharp eyesight – all essential for active, growing teens.

Fiber Means Feeling Full: Unlike fruit juices that lack fiber, using whole fruits means teens get plenty of dietary fiber. Fiber slows digestion, helping blood sugar stay balanced and keeping hunger at bay longer – so your teen feels satisfied and energized between meals without constant snacking.

Customizable to Your Teen’s Needs: Smoothie bowls are a blank canvas for your taste buds and your body's needs. Adding protein sources like Greek yogurt or protein powder helps provide sustained energy and muscle repair, while adding in seeds or nuts provides healthy fats that support brain development and improve focus during school or sports.
