Equipment

  • Blender

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup filtered water
  • 1/2 cup full-fat coconut milk
  • 1 frozen banana
  • 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks
  • 1/2 peeled zucchini (roughly chopped)
  • 3 tbsp hemp hearts
  • 2 servings collagen powder
  • 2 tsp lemon juice
  • 1/2-1 tsp turmeric (personal preference)
  • 1/2 tsp ginger

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients to the blender and blend on high until smooth.

Notes

  • Portion: makes 1 large smoothie or 2 regular-sized smoothies.
  • Collagen: I used Organika’s Collagen Peptides and did two servings (4 scoops) to reach 18 grams of protein total. Great Lakes and Vital Proteins are other great collagen brands.
  • Fresh vs Frozen: You can use either fresh or frozen fruit (pineapple/banana) in the recipe. However, frozen will result in a thicker/slightly sweeter smoothie.
  • More Veggies: add 1-2 handfuls of baby spinach.
