📝 Instructions

7 steps

1. Gather all your ingredients and ensure the pineapple chunks and banana are peeled and ready for use.

2. Add the pineapple chunks, banana, vanilla protein powder, almond milk, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, and ice cubes into a high-speed blender.

3. If you prefer a sweeter taste, add the honey or maple syrup at this stage.

4. Blend on high for approximately 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides of the blender if necessary to ensure all ingredients are evenly combined.

5. Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness or consistency if desired. Add a splash of almond milk for a thinner consistency or a few more ice cubes for a frostier texture.
