Nutrition, Thought Leadership Get back to the beach (and beach body) with this delicious, but still good for you, Pineapple Banana Smoothie Recipe.
Don’t let winter, life, or quarantine 2020 keep you from enjoying the tropics
We are all missing the beach these days (for future readers it’s Quarantine 2020 as I write this recipe) so why not bring the beach to you. Sometimes it just takes a smell or a flavor that reminds you of something you love.
As soon as I smell the pineapple and banana in this recipe I can feel the calm of the ocean, the sun in my face, and the sand in my toes (obviously the kids are at Grandma’s when I go to my special place LOL).
Pineapple Banana Protein Smoothie Recipe
Watch me make this recipe here
Ingredients:
½ c almond milk
½ c yogurt
1 scoop Phormula 1 Vanilla Milkshake Protein
4-8 oz of pineapple chunks W/ juice
1 banana
½ c ice (See tips to eliminate ice)
Instructions:
Combine all ingredients in a blender or Nutribullet
Blend until smoothie consistency (about 20 seconds)
Pour in a glass
Enjoy
Tips:
- I froze the pineapple chunks the night before so that I did not have to use ice to give it a nice smoothie consistency
- Use a Yogurt that is low in sugar (Greek may be too bitter) because we are using it for protein and consistency, not for flavor. This will help keep the calories down.
- You can use coconut milk, cashew milk, regular milk, etc. Using an unsweetened nut milk will also help cut calories down.
