Serves: 2
Ingredients

- 1 cup Mango
- 1/2 cup Plain Greek Yogurt
- 1 1/2 cups Baby Spinach

Process
- For whipped topping- chill a mixing bowl, then add in heavy cream, protein powder, powdered sugar, and vanilla. If using powdered sugar substitute add the arrowroot.
- Using a hand or stand mixer mix together until whipped up ~6-7 min
- If using a hand mixer take a break halfway and place bowl in the freezer for a few to chill again
- Once whipped, place in a piping bag (you will have extra)
- Optional- line the rim of your glass with whipped cream and roll in natural sprinkles (I used go super natural brand)
