I went up shopping today and picked up some watermelon and strawberries and decided to whip up this smoothie today with a can of pineapple I have already at home. It is simply called a Pineapple and Strawberry Watermelon smoothie. It's so yummy! When choosing watermelon choose one that feels heavy for its size. The cooler months tend not to be that sweet but sweeter in the warmer months. I just add honey for a sweeter taste.
Pineapple and Strawberry Watermelon Smoothie (serves 2)
1 cup chopped watermelon
1/2 cup of strawberries halved and hulled
about 3 rings of canned pineapple
1 cup of coconut milk/milk or even yogurt (optional)
1/2 tsp of honey
1 cup of crushed ice
Put the watermelon, strawberries, and pineapple in blender and blend til smooth. Add the coconut milk or milk/yogurt, honey and ice. Blend til thick or til ice has broken down.
My daughter the 7yo and I have just vowed to make this. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteSounds fantastic. I have a smoothie for lunch about every day these days. I'll have to try watermelon and pineapple. I usually just stick to the basics: banana + berries.
