Ingredients
- ½ cup milk (any kind)
- ¼ cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
- 1 cup kale (chopped, about 1 handful)
- 1 banana (sliced)
- 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks
Instructions
- Put milk, Greek yogurt, kale, sliced banana, and frozen pineapple chunks into a blender. Secure lid.Place ingredients into the blender in the order listed.
- Blend until smooth. Start the blender on LOW speed for 10 seconds. Increase speed to HIGH for a full minute.
- Pour smoothie into a cup. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Only one fruit needs to frozen. You can use frozen banana and fresh pineapple for a similar flavor profile.
- If the smoothie ends up too thick, add some milk and blend for another 10 seconds.
- Always use ripe bananas. Unripe bananas have a bitter flavor, which won’t taste good in the smoothie.
- If you have leftover smoothie, keep it in an airtight glass container for 1-2 days. Keep in mind that the ingredients might separate over time, so give it a good stir before drinking.
