Notes

  • Storage and Make-Ahead tips
  •  
  • Pineapple Smoothie Without Banana
  • While this recipe uses bananas as one of the ingredients, I have lots of friends and even members of my family who do not like bananas.  Bananas are normally used in smoothie recipes to create a creamy thick texture. If you are allergic to bananas, get heartburn from them, or just do not like them for some reason then you can swap the banana in the recipe for one cup of yogurt (dairy-free coconut yogurt if you are allergic to dairy). You can also substitute the banana for whipping cream.
  • The frozen fruit can be interchanged. Feel free to use frozen pineapple and fresh strawberries instead.
  • If using a high-power blender, start with the fruit first. The blender should be able to puree the fruit to a thick pulp. You can then proceed to add the almond milk.
  • You can use any milk you like, in place of almond milk.
  • You do not need to add ice. The frozen fruit ensures that the smoothie remains cold and creamy enough.
  • Store strawberries in a container that has been slightly covered. I always prefer keeping them in a single layer with paper towels in between this is because strawberries are very sensitive to moisture and tend to get moldy very quickly. For the same reason always wash strawberries just before you are about to use them. This prevents them from building up the moisture that would otherwise lead to mouldiness.
  • You can make this smoothie ahead for later use by storing it in an airtight jar and then keeping it in the refrigerator. It will keep for one day. Afterward, it just doesn't taste as great and the color may not look good.
  • Save time by chopping up your smoothie ingredients and storing them in zip-lock bags. These can then be stored in the freezer for later use. This is particularly helpful when using seasonal fruit or vegetables.
