PINEAPPLE SMOOTHIE

 A thick and creamy tropical pineapple smoothie recipe made with banana and mango, and fresh frozen pineapple. This healthy vegan pineapple banana smoothie is made without yogurt.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 small banana
• 1 1/2 cups frozen pineapple chunks
• 1/2 orange, peeled
• 1/2 cup frozen peach or mango chunks
• 1/4 cup pineapple juice
• 1 cup ice

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Pour the pineapple juice into a blender. Add the orange and banana on top. Add the frozen pineapple, mango, and ice.
2. Close the lid and fit with the tamper, if your blender came with one.
3. Turn on low speed, then increase to high. Blend, pushing ingredients around with the tamper, or stopping occasionally toe stir with a rubber spatula, until thick, creamy, and smooth.
4. If this smoothie is too thick for your blender, add more liquid to turn the blades. This pineapple smoothie recipe comes out very thick and frozen, like a soft ice cream.

Notes

You can use a bag of frozen pineapple here, or buy a fresh pineapple, cut, and freeze the chunks. When using the pineapple cutting tool we find there is often naturally 1/4 cup of juice sitting in the bottom of the pineapple.
