Pina Colada Smoothie

It's getting warm outside, which means I'm craving something fruity!!!!!   Plus, I hate spending tons of time cooking in a hot kitchen, when it's nice outside!   I'm loving this Pina Colada Smoothie for Breakfast, Lunch, or even dessert!!!!!

Pina Colada Smoothie

Serves: 2

Ingredients

1 large Banana

¾ cup canned Crushed (no sugar added) Pineapple (or 1-1/4 cup frozen or fresh pineapple chunks)

2 Tbsp Shredded Unsweetened Coconut, or sometimes I just use a few drops of coconut extract

1 cup Coconut Milk (I use what I have on hand: canned, carton, or homemade)

1-1/2 cups Ice

*Stevia to taste, this is optional depending on how sweet you like your colada!!!!

Instructions

Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until thick and smooth.

Garnish with a pineapple slice or some more shredded coconut if you want to get all fancy.

Drink 1/2 and freeze the other 1/2 for a bedtime "ice cream" snack!
