I could not have had happier kids this morning if I’d slaved over a four-course feast.
Instead, I threw some pineapple, banana and coconut stuff into a blender and made some MAGIC. Even better? It’s healthy magic.
We are a big smoothie family, gulping them down at warp speed three or four days each week. So when one makes everybody stop and say “I love this!” it’s good stuff.
Frozen pineapple is best because it chills and thickens the mixture. Everything else is easy-peasy; I promise you can’t mess this one up!

Pina Colada Smoothies
Blend this one real good. Those coconut flakes are pesky (buy the flakes vs. strings if you can — they’re smaller) and take a while to blend.
1 cup frozen pineapple chunks
1⁄2 banana
1⁄4 cup coconut flakes
1 tablespoon honey (or to taste)
1⁄4 cup non-fat yogurt
3⁄4 cup lite coconut milk
Place all ingredients in blender and combine until smooth. Add additional honey if needed.
Makes 1 serving.
