BACK WITH A DELICIOUS PINA COLADA SMOOTHIE RECIPE!
Since so many of you guys appreciated my delicious Mojito smoothie recipe, I have decided to also share with you my new pina colada smoothie recipe!
I have always been a huge fan of pineapple. 😁 I love adding it to fruit salads or even eating it straight out of the can. Therefore, in order to keep things interesting, I have decided to also add it to my smoothies. This is how this recipe was born, and believe me guys, I was simply mind blown by how delicious it is!
Without further ado, here is the recipe for two (big) servings:
Ingredients:
- 500ml Alpro coconut milk
- 2 bananas
- Dole pineapple, half a can
- Chia seeds, about 1tbsp
- Oats, 1&1/2 tbsp
- Coconut shreds, 1 tbsp
Blend and enjoy!
You can adjust the texture to your liking. Add more bananas or oats in order to make it thicker, and more coconut milk or even filtered water to make it more fluid. As far as I am concerned, I prefer a thicker, creamier version. You can have it for desert or as a snack whenever you feel the need for something sweet.
I have specified the exact brands that I have used (Alpro and Dole) because I want to make sure that you will get the exact same taste if you try the recipe. I once used a different pineapple brand in one of my recipes, and the taste was noticeably different. But feel free to adjust the ingredients however you like. 🙂
Benefits:
- Bananas, pineapple, chia seeds and oats are all high in antioxidants
- The potassium in the banana helps keep your heart and brain healthy
- The pineapple is known to help reduce bloating
- Chia seeds contain Omega-3 fatty acids which help prevent heart disease
- Oats help reduce cholesterol levels and blood sugar levels
