Pineapple Banana & Coconut Cream Smoothie

I found this recipe on a blog entitled "Love Veggies and Yoga" and absolutely fell in love with it. It's what I imagine drinking sunshine out of a glass might be like.

• Ready In: 5 mins
• Serves: 2
• Yields: 12 ounces

Ingredients

• 1  banana, previously frozen is ideal but not essential
• 1  cup pineapple
• 1⁄2 cup coconut milk
• 1⁄2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1  cup  ice cube
• 1⁄4 cup sugar (optional)
• 1⁄3 cup  additional  fruit (optional)
• 1⁄4 cup yogurt (optional)
• 1  tablespoon  neutral or vanilla flavored  protein powder (optional)

Directions

1. Blend everything in a Vita-Mix, Magic Bullet, or blender until smooth. Top with a handful of coconut flakes, granola, nuts, seeds, dried fruit, or raisins. Store extra in the freezer and remove from freezer long enough to soften before drinking the leftover portion.
