INGREDIENTS

▢ 1 tablespoon lemon zest freshly grated
▢ 2 tablespoon lemon juice freshly squeezed
▢ 1 whole banana
▢ 1 cup pineapple chunks frozen
▢ 1 cup soy milk or preferred plant milk
▢ 1 pinch turmeric powder
▢ 2 tablespoon maple syrup optional
▢ ⅓ cup protein powder (unflavored) optional

METHOD

Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender and blend till smooth.

NOTES

Ripe banana: Use a ripe (very spotty) banana for natural sweetness and an ultra-creamy texture.

Fresh, quality fruits: It's always best to use fresh ingredients for the brightest flavors!

Cold ingredients: Use cold fruit or add ice for a refreshingly cool smoothie.

Wash the lemon well: If using lemon zest, wash the lemon thoroughly before zesting.

Adjust the sweetness: Taste the smoothie once it’s blended, and add agave or maple syrup if you prefer a sweeter flavor.
