Ingredients

1 cup fresh or frozen pineapple chunks
1 medium ripe banana (fresh or frozen)
1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of your choice)
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (optional, for added creaminess and protein)
1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for extra sweetness)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, for added flavor)
1 cup ice cubes (if using fresh fruit instead of frozen)

Directions

If using fresh fruit, peel and chop the pineapple and banana into smaller pieces for easier blending.
If you prefer a thicker smoothie, freeze the fruit beforehand or add extra ice.
In a high-speed blender, combine the pineapple, banana, almond milk, Greek yogurt (if using), honey or maple syrup (if desired), and vanilla extract.
Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy. If the mixture is too thick, add more milk, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired consistency.
If you’re adding protein powder, spinach, or seeds, blend again until fully incorporated and smooth.
Garnish with a slice of pineapple or a sprinkle of chia seeds.
