Basic Fruit Smoothie 'Template'

Makes 1 smoothieThis smoothie used up a really ripe banana, an orange close to being out of it’s prime, and the last of a big head of pineapple i had. mmmm so tasty!!!!! A little on the pulpy side, but if you cut the pineapple cleanly it shouldn’t be so bad. I didn’t mind it, personally.
Ingredients:
1 Banana
1 Orange
1½ cup chopped pineapple
Preparation:
Well, I put the banana in, put the orange in [check for seeds!], and chopped the pineapple and put it in. I probably used a bit more than 1.5 cups of pineapple though, as i was using up the “leftovers”.. Blend until smooth!
I found this really delicious. I’m sure someone has done this combination before, but wowza! I shocked myself! [not literally.. heh]
I’m sure you could do endless possibilities here.. I think smoothies are a great way to use up fruit that is very ripe and may not be the best in a fruit salad or something similar.

Awesome pic! How'd you do that?

i think i go through phases or something. a few days ago i was making monsterous salads for dinner, and now for the last few days i've eaten almost all fruit. i'm not sure if i should be okay with craving only fruit and go with it, or if i should maybe push myself to eat some greens or vegetables.

I have experienced the exact same thing. Most of the time all I want is fruit, and then there are times which I want some greens.

This almost exactly what I had for breakfast on the weekend. Great to share it with others! I used to do way more green smoothies but now, I crave fruit only. Anybody else experience this?
