Name: Mango-Ginger Smoothie
Total time: 10 min
Ingredients: ½ cup cooked red lentils (see Tips), cooled; 1 cup frozen mango chunks; ¾ cup carrot juice; 1 teaspoon chopped fresh ginger; 1 teaspoon honey; Pinch of ground cardamom, plus more for garnish; 3 ice cubes

Red lentils are a sneaky source of plant-based protein in this healthy smoothie recipe. The lentils add 3 grams more protein than an equal-size portion of nonfat plain yogurt and 4 grams more fiber than a typical serving of protein powder.

My new favorite morning smoothy! Love the flavor of cardamom and ginger. It's an easy way to add vitamin A without having to chew on hard carrot sticks.
