Ingredients

  • 5-6 strawberries fresh or frozen
  • ⅓ cup pineapple fresh or frozen
  • 1 ripe banana
  • 1 tablespoon hemp hearts
  • ½ cup almond milk or milk of choice a little more as needed if using frozen fruit

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Add all the ingredients to your blender and process until smooth. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Depending on the ratio of fresh or frozen fruit, you may need to adjust the liquid quantity. Fresh fruit is easier to blend and naturally has more liquid, so use only half a cup of plant milk with all fresh fruit. Add more milk as needed when using frozen fruit.
  • Frozen fruit will give thicker, creamier results, but fresh fruit also works well, as the banana will slightly thicken your strawberry pineapple smoothie.
  • For extra slush and to thicken your drink when using fresh fruit, add a handful of ice cubes. Skip when using frozen fruit.
  • If you do not have hemp hearts, you may sub for a tablespoon of flax seeds, ground flax, chia seeds, or even a nut butter such as almond or peanut butter.
  • For extra sweetness, add 1-2 pitted dates or a teaspoon of maple or date syrup. I find this smoothie to be plenty sweet as is, but if you like it extra sweet, make it to your liking.
  • If you don't have pineapple, mango also works well as a replacement. Raspberries or cherries also work well to sub the strawberries if you don't have any on hand.
  • The recipe makes approx 2 cups, enough for one large glass or two smaller servings.
