This banana + pineapple + coconut + vanilla smoothie is a tropical beach vacation in a glass. With a cherry on top.
Yield: 1 large smoothie
Total Time: 5 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 frozen ripe banana, previously peeled & sliced
- 3/4 cup fresh pineapple chunks
- 1/2 cup Bai5 Molokai Coconut
- 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt1
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup ice
- cherries and pineapple chunks for decor (pretty things taste better)
Directions:
- Make sure you have a strong, powerful blender to really get that banana blended.
- On high, blend all of the ingredients listed – in that order – until thick, creamy, and smooth – about 3 minutes. Stop to scrape down the sides of the blender as needed. Add more Bai5 Molokai Coconut if needed to thin out.
- Serve in a glass and enjoy.
Recipe Notes:
- Try adding 1 cup of your favorite greens to get in some extra veggies.
- Full fat, low fat, or 0% Greek yogurt are all fine. Regular yogurt is OK as well. I prefer plain yogurt in this smoothie; I find flavored yogurt makes the smoothie too sweet.
