Ingredients

  • 1 cup baby spinach or kale see notes below
  • 1 cup fresh pineapple cored and cut into chunks
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt I used non-fat
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 dash turmeric
  • 1-2 teaspoons chia seeds flaxseed meal or both
  • 1 small knob fresh ginger root about the size of a quarter
  • juice from 1/2 lemon
  • 1/2 cup water can substitute with milk or juice (I used water)
  • 2 cups frozen blueberries

Instructions

  1. Place all the ingredients in your Blendtec or high speed blender in the order as they appear.
  2. Blend on high until completely smooth or until desired consistency is reached. Feel free to add more or less water depending on your preference.

Recipe Notes

  • If you are using a fresh ripe pineapple, you may not need to add any extra sweeteners like honey or sugar. Feel free to add honey or agave nectar if you find this not sweet enough for you.
  • For a thicker smoothie, you can add ice or a frozen banana
  • If you decide to use fresh blueberries, make sure to add ice or a frozen banana for a thicker consistency
  • If you don't mind the green color, feel free to add more spinach or kale into your smoothie. When I'm making the smoothie just for myself and not my husband who isn't a fan of the green color, I usually add at least a cup or more of baby spinach.
