Ingredients

  • 1 frozen banana
  • 2 cups frozen pineapple chunks
  • ¾ cup pineapple juice
  • 1 container (5.3 oz.) plain Greek yogurt
  • ¼ cup coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons agave syrup, or as desired (honey or sugar can be substituted)
  • 1 scoop collagen or protein powder, optional
  • pineapple wedges, for optional garnish

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients to a blender, and blend until smooth.
    1 frozen banana, 2 cups frozen pineapple chunks, ¾ cup pineapple juice, 1 container (5.3 oz.) plain Greek yogurt, ¼ cup coconut milk, 2 tablespoons agave syrup, or as desired, 1 scoop collagen or protein powder, optional
  • Pour into glasses and garnish with pineapple wedges. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Yield: This recipe makes about 4 cups. You can divide it into two 16 oz. servings, or four 8 oz. servings.
  • Pineapple: I like to buy a fresh pineapple, cut it into chunks, and freeze it in 2 cup portions so it's all ready for smoothies. Bananas can be frozen ahead, too, especially if you happen to have extra ripe bananas on your counter.
  • Less sugar: If you prefer, decrease the amount of pineapple juice and increase the amount of unsweetened coconut milk. You can also skip the added sweetener, especially if the banana is very ripe.
  • Protein boost: Substituting cottage cheese for the yogurt will add slightly more protein. The smoothie will be thicker, too. Collagen or protein powder are optional add-ins.
