Pineapple Creamsicle Smoothie

Here's a quick & easy smoothie recipe!

This Monday morning I'm sharing a super easy recipe for delicious smoothies that can be made up in 5-10 minutes (cut this down to 2 minutes if you have frozen fruit already chopped up!). My kids loved this. I used Silk Brand Almond Coconut Blend, because I like that it’s unsweetened. I used fresh pineapple, but frozen would be fine too. Mango would be a good replacement, or peaches. Either way it’s a nice treat with no added sugar. I hope you make it and enjoy it!

Strawberry Banana Smoothie

I've been trying to get back to healthy eating (which for me right now is no grains, no sugar) since I got back from San Francisco.  It's been tough.  Once I break the habit it's hard for me to get back to it.  But nothing convinces me better than a fresh smoothie.

Here is a delicious strawberry banana smoothie, with no added sugar, and no dairy. I love it and my kids love it too.

Cook Time: 0 minutes

Ingredients:

• 4 strawberries, trimmed

• 1/2 cup crushed ice (approx 3-4 large cubes)
