Recipe yields 2 servings
In a blender, add all of the ingredients and blend on high for 2 minutes, until smooth and well combined. If necessary, add more milk or water to thin the smoothie.
To Make it Vegan: The 'Vegan' tag conflicts with 'Greek yogurt'. To make this recipe vegan, replace the Greek yogurt with a non-dairy yogurt (like coconut or almond-based) or use 1/4 cup of silken tofu for creaminess.
To Make it Without Banana: Replace the ½ banana with ½ cup of frozen mango, ½ cup of frozen cauliflower (for creaminess without flavor), or ¼ cup of rolled oats.
For Extra Greens: Add a large handful of fresh spinach. The color will change, but the flavor is easily masked by the pineapple.
Protein Powder: Any vanilla protein powder works. If using unflavored powder, you may want to add a drop more vanilla extract.
