Rachel’s Favorite Summertime Pink Smoothie
We’re so close to Summer and that means we’re craving cold, refreshing, lighter meals and snacks.
Tropical tasting smoothies are just the thing to fuel our summer days!
Whether it’s a light meal or a quick snack, icy-cold smoothies are just the thing to keep us nourished and hydrated on a hot day.
Bonus: This smoothie tastes like dessert!
🍍Although fresh pineapple is available year-round in most of the US, this island fruit hits its peak from March through July.
Besides being completely DELICIOUS, fresh Pineapple is packed with nutrients, antioxidants and other helpful compounds, such as enzymes that can help with digestion, fight inflammation and disease.
I like to boost the protein in my smoothies using my favorite protein powder and collagen, but you can absolutely leave it out if you wish, or substitute with Greek yogurt or cottage cheese.
Why is the Just Ingredients Protein Powder & collagen our FAVORITE option?
-
The protein comes from 5 sources: 100% super high-quality grass-fed whey, pea protein, pumpkin seed, chia seeds and collagen.
-
There is a lot less whey compared to normal protein powders so it may be easier on the stomach than other protein powders!
-
Free from sugar, gluten, artificial sweeteners or any artificial ingredients.

🥛Use ANY milk of your choice.
My personal preferences for this drink are unsweetened coconut milk, unsweetened almond milk, or unsweetened cashew milk. Any milk you have and like will work!
4 servings
Ingredients:
- 1 x 14.5oz can oz full fat unsweetened organic coconut milk or milk of choice

- 2 cups fresh or frozen pineapple chunks
- 1 Tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice
- 2 servings vanilla protein powder
- 2 servings collagen powder
Instructions:

If you’re using fresh fruit instead of frozen fruit, you’ll want to add a few ice cubes. If you’re using frozen fruit, you don’t need ice cubes.
Add in your fresh lime juice, protein powder, and the collagen. Blend until well incorporated.
Transfer evenly into four tall glasses and serve immediately.
Enjoy!
