Here’s a tasty and refreshing smoothie that’s always a Summer favorite.  Great way to get your whey protein for the day!

1  Small Banana
3/4 c.  Pineapple Chunks – fresh or canned
1/2 c. Pina Colada low fat Yogurt  (or Vanilla if you can’t find Pina Colada flavor)
1/4 c.  Coconut Milk  (you may want to add more or less depending upon your taste)
1  Scoop Vanilla Whey Protein powder
1/2 c.  Crushed Ice

Combine all ingredients in blender and blend until smooth.

For a thicker, colder smoothie – freeze pineapple chunks and banana (peeled, sliced, and put in zip-lock bag) ahead of time. Then combine all ingredients as above, reducing crushed ice to about 1/4 c. Blend well and serve immediately.
