Tickle your taste buds with this delicious and nutritious tropical kiwi pineapple smoothie!
This is one of those mouthwatering smoothies. I had just enough time to take a few pictures
before it was history. I try to eat locally grown food whenever possible. However, I make exceptions for tasty and nourishing foods such as kiwi and pineapple. Kiwis are high in vitamin C, containing more of this essential vitamin than an equivalent amount of orange. Vitamin C and the other
phytonutrients found in kiwis result in an antioxidant powerhouse. They are also a good source of dietary fiber and potassium and contain trace amounts of other vitamins and minerals.
Pineapples are rich in vitamin C and manganese and are a good source of dietary fiber,folate, copper, vitamin B1, and vitamin B6. This nutrient profile promotes immune support, antioxidant activity, anti-inflammatory, digestive aid, and protection against macular
degeneration.
Kiwi and pineapple combined with greek yoghurt, avocado, lime juice, and honey make for
one healthy smoothie.
Recipe
1 cup greek yoghurt
1 kiwi, skin removed
1/2 cup frozen pineapple
