Ingredients

  • 1 Scoop Whey Protein
  • 3/4 Cup Pineapple juice
  • 1 Banana
  • 1/2 Cup Light coconut milk
  • 1 Cup Frozen mango
  • 1 Cup Frozen pineapple

Optional garnishes:

  • lime slices, raspberries, and pineapple wedges

Instructions

  • Place the 3/4 Cup Pineapple juice, 1 Scoop Whey Protein, 1/2 Cup Light coconut milk, 1 Banana, 1 Cup Frozen mango, and 1 Cup Frozen pineapple in a blender; blend until completely smooth.
  • Pour the smoothie into 2 glasses and add optional garnishes like lime slices, raspberries, and pineapple wedges if desired. Serve immediately

Notes

Substitutes:
  • In place of pineapple juice, you can use coconut water or freshly squeezed orange juice.
  • You can use plant-based protein instead of whey protein. Or you may skip the protein entirely
  • Use frozen fruits. Using frozen mango and pineapple will ensure a thick and creamy smoothie.
Storage: It is best to drink this smoothie when you make it and not store it. It can be stored in the fridge for a couple of days, but it will melt and be on the watery side.
