Units
Scale
- 3/4 cup coconut milk, from a carton (Note 1)
- 1/2 cup frozen pineapple
- 1/2 cup frozen mango
- 1/2 frozen banana
- 1 large orange, freshly squeezed
- 1/8 teaspoon ground turmeric
- A pinch of freshly ground black pepper (Note 2)
Optional Mix-Ins
- 1 scoop protein powder (I like vanilla flavor)
- 1 tablespoon ground flaxseeds, chia seeds, or hemp seeds
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients to a high-powered blender in this order: coconut milk, orange juice, turmeric, black pepper, optional mix-ins, mango, pineapple, and banana.
- Blend until creamy and smooth, adding more milk as needed.
- Serve immediately and enjoy. Tastes best when fresh.
Notes
- I use coconut milk from a carton for this smoothie recipe. It’s thinner than canned coconut milk. You can use filtered water or your favorite non-dairy milk if you prefer.
- Black pepper can help enhance the absorption of curcumin, which is the active compound in turmeric.
- Nutritional information is a rough estimate using Silk Coconut Milk from a carton.
