This is really just a fancy way of eating (or drinking) healthy... Smoothies can look & feel boring but this new craze is all over Instagram & Pinterest & has reinvented the classic smoothie. You can literally use whatever you want. My absolute favorite smoothie has always been my pineapple watermelon one as it combines two of my favorite things: pineapple and watermelon... Here's how I make it:
Ingredients:
1/2 cup fresh pineapple juice
1/2 cup diced watermelon
1 banana
1 cup ice (add less ice if you'll be using any frozen fruit)
Toppings:
Blueberries
Diced watermelon
Banana slices
Chia seeds
Method:
1. Put all ingredients into a blender & blend until smooth. You may want to add more liquid or ice according to desired consistency.
2. Pour smoothie into bowl and arrange toppings. You can be as simple or as fancy as you like.
Tips:
1. If the smoothie isn't sweet enough, you can always add honey to the smoothie itself or drizzle some on top after you add your toppings.
2. Note that the smoothie will need to be thicker than the normal "drinking" consistency so that toppings won't sink.
