Notes

  • Use frozen pineapple chunks if you don’t have ice to keep the smoothie cold.
  • Protein powder type can be whey, plant-based, or your preferred option.
  • Turmeric powder adds anti-inflammatory benefits but has a strong flavor; adjust to taste.
  • Honey is optional and can be substituted with maple syrup or agave for a vegan option.
  • For a thicker smoothie, use less almond milk or add more ice.
  • Consume immediately to retain the freshness and nutrient content.
