Servings: 2 people
Equipment
Ingredients
- 3 cubes of ice
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 cup fresh cherries
- 1 cup pineapple chopped
- ½ cup almond milk
- 1 tbsp chia
- optional: 1 tbsp maple syrup
Instructions
- Combine all the ingredients in a blender.
- Cover and blend until smooth for about 30 seconds.
- Taste to adjust flavor and serve immediately. Enjoy.
Notes
- Buy pre-pitted frozen cherries to save time.
- Add more ice to the blender if you want a thicker smoothie.
- A frozen banana makes the smoothie thick and creamy, so don’t forget to freeze your banana in advance!
- To Store: You can store this smoothie for an extra day in the fridge. I like to keep it in a mason jar and give it a good shake first since the ingredients can separate.
- To Freeze: You can also freeze prepared smoothies for up to a month in a silicone freezer-safe container. Just be sure to leave extra space because it’ll expand as it freezes.
- To Meal Prep: Make “cherry smoothie packs” by adding the fruit, chia seeds, and ice cubes to a freezer-safe bag. When you’re ready for a smoothie, pour a bag into your high speed blender, add the milk, and blend until smooth.
