Banana, Strawberry, Pineapple Smoothie
Hey Samantha, the only frozen fruit in this recipe is the banana, the rest are fresh, so feel free to…
The last few afternoons I have been craving a smoothie. We’ve been hard at work gardening and all I want is a cold “pick me up” when I’m exhausted. This does the trick! The best thing about this recipe is that you can match fruit to your liking and create your own. Other examples: banana, orange, pear watermelon, kiwi banana, orange, strawberries banana, blueberries watermelon, orange, pineapple banana, apple, orange pineapple, kiwi orange, strawberries banana, peach strawberry, banana blueberries, apple, banana banana, cherries pineapple, blueberries blueberry, pomegranate, banana There are so many more variations. Isn’t it amazing? I also love this recipe because it gets rid of any fruit where you aren’t sure what to do with. Many times I’m left with a few random strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, a banana that is very ripe, half an orange, etc. Put all the soon to go bad fruits in your blender and you’ll quickly have a delicious drink.
- 1 frozen banana
- 3 strawberries - halfed
- 1/2 cup fresh pineapple - cubed
- 4 tablespoons milk
- Peel your banana, then cut up into small pieces (about 16 pieces per banana). Put it in your freezer and allow to freeze.
- Once frozen blend your banana with your milk. Get it smooth.
- Add your berries and pineapple.
- Blend until everything is smooth.
- Pour and enjoy!
- Try other fruit variations.
Do you know how much I love bananas? I usually eat 2 bananas a day. 
But sometimes by the time I get to the last one, it’s brown and very ripe. I don’t like super gooey brown bananas raw, so this smoothie is perfect for it. 
I cut it in half then cut into equal sized slices. Then I throw them in a bag and freeze. 
Strawberries are delicious. I spotted our first strawberry flowers a few days ago. I can’t wait to harvest our own strawberries this year. They’re always super sweet. 
One happy blender!
Enjoy your smoothie, hope you like it! Do you have any other fruit variations to share? Please do!
This is a smoothy that I enjoy often! I also just made a smoothy this morning on my blog! Come on over ,…! 🙂
MMMMMMMMMMMMMM! Lovely & refreshing too!
Love it! High 5’s to smoothies!
We love smoothies at our house. A few years ago I was on a big green smoothie kick. Handfuls of spinach + handful of blueberries + few strawberries + splash of water/coconut milk/almond milk. Mmmm. My daughter was 3 at the time and she would request her chocolate milk smoothie several times a week –because the blueberries would make the spinach look brownish.
I absolutely love spinach in smoothies. Granny smith apples + spinach is one of my favorites! What a great treat for your daughter. 😛
I’m a huge fan of smoothies and shakes! Loving that poka dot straw. 🙂
Thanks Tina! Picked them up at the dollar store. 🙂
I love smoothies during the summer –they’re so refreshing! I love the idea of watermelon and kiwi –will have to try that next time I make some. Have a fabulous week Pamela!
I absolutely love kiwi in smoothies. I dont buy kiwi as much as I should but when I do… I know it’s smoothie time! Have a lovely week! 🙂
Love strawberry smoothies and this one looks fabulous Pamela! We like adding spinach to our smoothies sometimes for a little green kick. Sometimes we’ll add different berries and mangoes or whatever fruit we have 🙂 Wish I was having this strawberry smoothie for breakfast now, yum!:)
I absolutely love spinach in smoothies, it’s such a great kick and super healthy!
Yum! It looks pretty and delicious.
Thanks!
i love smoothies! 🙂 I’d so add coconut milk to this, not very healthy but i’m on a coconut kick atm!
I love anything coconut so that sounds like a great choice!
smooooothie! These are my fave breakfasts in the summertime!!
I know, don’t you just love them?
I always eat 2 bananas a day. I thought I was the only one! I can only eat them when they’re a little green, though, so I have also been on a smoothie kick, as well as banana bread and banana cream pie to use up the ripe ones. Bananas are the best!
I’ve been thinking about making a good banana bread with my brown ones, seems like a delicious idea!
This sounds like the ultimate summer pick me up. 🙂 I also love adding a little shaved coconut into my smoothies !
Always love some added coconut.. I can add it to just about anything! 🙂
I love starting my morning with a smoothie – great post and pictures!
Thanks Dave!

[…] eat them with a spoon like some people do. So what to do? You can make a smoothie, that sounds good. Or you can make these banana muffins. […]
[…] can we do with frozen strawberries? Well I’m glad you asked. -Smoothies! My favorite. Throw frozen strawberries in your blender and continue as usual in […]
