Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Open the can of pineapples and drain the juice. Set the pineapple chunks aside.
- Peel the banana and cut it into chunks for easier blending.
- In a large blender, add the pineapple chunks, Greek yogurt, and banana pieces.
- Pour the orange juice into the blender.
- Blend the mixture on high speed until it is smooth and creamy. This should take about 1-2 minutes. You can stop occasionally to scrape down the sides if ingredients are sticking.
- Gradually add the water to the blender, blending continuously until all the water is incorporated and the smoothie reaches your desired consistency. Depending on the strength of your blender, you may need to do this in batches.
- Taste the smoothie and adjust according to your preference. You can add more orange juice if you prefer a sweeter taste or more yogurt for a creamier texture.
- Pour the smoothie into glasses. Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
- If desired, you can garnish with a slice of pineapple, a sprig of mint, or a sprinkle of chia seeds on top.
- If you have leftovers, store the smoothie in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Stir well before serving again.
Tips:
- For an extra creamy texture, use frozen banana slices instead of fresh.
- Add a handful of spinach or kale to incorporate some greens for an additional nutrient boost.
- For added sweetness, consider using a tablespoon of honey or agave syrup.
- If you prefer a thicker smoothie, reduce the amount of water or orange juice.
- Blend the smoothie on high speed to ensure all the ingredients are well combined and smooth.
- To chill your smoothie, serve it over ice or use frozen pineapple chunks.
