Ingredients you'll need

From your kitchen
  • A few ice cubes
Step by step this way
  • 1.

    Slice the top off the pineapple, then slice it in half. Set 1 half aside (see our tip on how to use it up). Slice the base and skin off the other pineapple half and use the tip of a small, sharp knife to cut out the ‘eyes’. Finely chop the pineapple and pop it in your blender.

  • 2.

    Tuck in the baby leaf spinach. Pour in 250ml of the drinking yogurt and add a few ice cubes. Blitz for a few mins till smooth, then pour into glasses and serve.

    Pineapple dreams
    You can use all the pineapple in this smoothie if you have a big enough blender (this will affect the nutritional information) or keep it, wrapped, in your fridge for 2-3 days. Try turning your leftover pineapple into a fresh and fiery fruit salad by peeled and dicing the pineapple and tossing it with lime zest and juice, chopped chilli and a spoonful of sugar. Let it sit for a 10-15 to marinate, then serve.
