Pineapple Pear Smoothie – Vegan and Sugar-Free
Another tasty, vegan smoothie from our smoothie-master, Geoff.
With the inclusion of both ginger and turmeric, this smoothie – aside from being delicious – contains anti-oxidants and anti-inflammatories, too!
Just place all of the ingredients in your blender – we like to use a Vitamix – and blend until smooth.
The result is a smooth and creamy start to your day. The complete, printable recipe is at the end of this post.
