Smoothies can be a deceitful drink. Sometimes people like to think they are doing themselves a big ol' favor drinking one. Those people can be wrong. Some smoothies are made thick and creamy by adding ice cream, some are made sweet by adding a lot of sugar. This smoothie is actually good for you, and, like most things out of Everyday Food, it tastes good.
Pineapple & Ginger Smoothie
adapted from Everyday Food
serves 2
Ingredients:
1 cup frozen pineapple cut into 1-inch pieces
1-inch piece of ginger, peeled and minced
1/2 cup low-fat plain yogurt
1 cup pineapple juice
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Directions: Blend until smooth.
Hints by Rebekah: If you find yourself with extra ginger, put it in the freezer. Frozen ginger can be grated on a microplane or grater with greater ease than fresh ginger. I used frozen ginger for the recipe, and I also didn't peel it, there's no need to peel ginger.
