Smoothie tropical à l’ananas et au cottage cheese

Ingrédients

• 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks
• 1/2 cup cottage cheese
• 1/2 cup coconut water
• 1/4 ripe banana
• 1/2 teaspoon lime zest

Préparation

1. 1

   Combine the coconut water and cottage cheese in the blender and pulse a few times to break up the curds before adding the pineapple, banana, and lime zest. Blend on high until completely smooth, about 45 seconds.

2. 2

   Just like our original cottage cheese swap, this version trades yogurt for cottage cheese to add extra protein while keeping the smoothie thick and creamy. Pairing it with pineapple and coconut water gives it a completely different, more tropical personality than the strawberry version, proving the swap works with almost any fruit.

3. 3

   Coconut water can vary in sweetness by brand, so taste your pineapple first — if it's very ripe and sweet, you may want to use plain water instead to keep the smoothie from becoming too sugary.
