Good morning (or night) fellow steempunks! Every new day I feel so blessed to be able to live in this beautiful country and be part of the loving steemit community. You guys rock!

But let's talk smoothies and cats on this beautiful tropical, sunny morning.

Ingredients

1.5 cup bok choy
1/2 cup Tulsi or holy basil
1.5 cup papaya chunks
1 cup mango chunks
1 banana
1/2 cup plain unsweetened coconut yogurt
Fresh ginger to taste
2 cups water

**FYI: CLICH HERE if you want to learn to make your own dairy and dairy-free yogurt

Directions

  1. Blend bok choy, tulsi, and water until smooth. Add the remaining ingredients and blend again. If the smoothie is too thick for you, add more liquid base. If you have a high-speed blender you can blend everything at once.
  2. Optional: top with toppings/superfoods of your choice (chia seeds, desiccated coconut, hemp hearts etc.)

Always funny to see how the neighbor's cats are also interested in what I'm doing in the kitchen... or is it my beautiful Chivas they are after? Probably they are! She looks so different than the Cambodian cats... so prob they are still figuring out what species lives next door. How many cats can you spot in this picture?

Thank you for being you and the ongoing support!

Looks tasty and healthy.

Thanks @duckmast3r! It sure was a tasty morning drink.

Looks really good especially with the mango and papaya what's it taste like

Hard to describe, but it tastes like the sweet fruits with a yummy addition of the tulsi in the background.

Banana+mango+yogurt=delicious! Yeah i want too. And good morning to you 😊

Thanks @jyoce.forde! Best way to start the day hehe

Evening over here.. Good morning to you! Never heard of Tulsi, but anything with mango chunks is good to me :) Hope you have a great day. (I see 1.5 cats)

There are actually 3. 2 in the front and one in the far back. Thanks @jeffjagoe and have a great evening!

Ahh now I see. I was missing the whitish fellow in the front!

Cats are masters in hiding or blending in.

Looks Tasty....... and sounds very healthy. Great share... :)

Thanks Nov. Always welcome for breakfast tomorrow or any other day ;)

Tulsi? Like basil, I'm guessing? That's a new one!

Yep. Tulsi or holy basil. Love that stuff! You should try it some day.

OOh i love a good mango lassi - i bet this would be amazing!

Thanks @jaymorebeet! We love lassis too.

You are brave ! It looks good though!

Was good indeed! Thanks @wavemaster!

I have everything for this smoothie except the basil which I am waiting for now.I love Bok Choy. It is probably the green leafy veggie I eat the most of. It grows so good in our garden in the colder months here in Florida. I was using it way before kale, now I tried my hand with Kale and put down seeds for the first time, waiting like a kid waiting for Santa. 🙈🙈

Hehe! Hope Santa comes soon. We can't wait to move house and start growing more fruits and veggie again. Nothing tastes better... Thanks for your comment @healthyrecipe

That's a moringa tree dear @amy-goodrich! Apparently there are also the sticks on it!

Yep Love that tree! It's actually the neighbors... ours is still pretty small... but the neighbor doesn't mind sharing its lovely tree. No sticks yet ;) Can't wait to try them. Thanks for your comment!

Looking forward to see when you will try it dear!
Cheers
