Ingredients

This simple pineapple weight-loss smoothie without banana features only nutrient-dense, antioxidant-rich whole foods like:

  • Frozen pineapple (we call it ananas in my country) – if you use fresh pineapple add some ice to chill and thicken up your smoothie. Pineapple is rich in vitamin C which boosts your immune system, and fights inflammation, cancer, and heart disease. What’s more, pineapple contains bromelain, a group of enzymes that aid digestion and help your skin and tissues heal.
  • English cucumber – Persian cucumber works, too. If using regular cucumber make sure to peel and seed it to avoid bitterness). This low-calorie fruit promotes gut health, increases hydration, and helps manage blood sugar and weight.
  • Fresh peach (feel free to use frozen if you like) – this sweet and juicy fruit is also low in calories and full of both soluble and insoluble fiber. This greatly benefits digestion and reduces the likelihood of constipation.
  • Fresh ginger – contains gingerol which has powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. It can speed up the emptying of the stomach, enhance calorie burn, and reduce feelings of hunger.
  • Fresh mint leaves – an amazing aromatic herb that is effective at relieving digestive problems such as indigestion and upset stomach.
  • Lemon (freshly juiced) – it stimulates weight loss, helps you lose weight, and improves your overall health.
  • Turmeric powder – rich in curcumin, a natural compound that has huge antioxidant, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory properties.
  • Cold water – a vital liquid that is 100% calorie-free helps your body burn calories and fat. Additionally, freshwater assists in flushing out waste from your body and promotes satiety and fullness.

As always, you can find the full recipe with a list of ingredients with measurements in a printable recipe card at the end of this post.

Instructions

Hint: Don’t have frozen pineapple?

Simply peel and dice fresh pineapple, spread the pieces on a baking tray lined with parchment paper in a single layer, and freeze for 2-3 hours. Take the sheet pan out of the freezer and transfer the pineapple chunks to a freezer-friendly bag or storage container.

Substitutions

  • English cucumber – instead of English cucumber you can use Persian cucumber or regular cucumber. If using common cucumber make sure to peel and seed it to avoid the bitter flavor.
  • Peach -ripe banana, pear, apricot, plum, or mango would be a great substitute.
  • Mint – you can replace fresh mint with fresh basil or parsley leaves.
  • Ginger -ginger powder is an excellent alternative to fresh ginger. Substitute 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh ginger with ¼ teaspoon of ginger powder.
  • Lemon juice – use lime juice instead.
  • Water – you can swap it with coconut water or any dairy-free milk like almond milk or oat milk.

Variations

  • Super seeds – add chia seeds, hemp seeds, ground flax seeds, or pumpkin seeds for plant-based omega-3 fatty acids and protein.
  • Protein boost – blend in a scoop of clean vegan protein powder to turn your smoothie into a meal.
  • Add sweetener – if you want to make it a little sweeter include pure maple syrup, agave nectar, or stevia liquid extract into your pineapple smoothie.
  • Luscious creaminess – add dairy-free Greek yogurt for a pack of protein, gut-supporting probiotics, and silky smooth consistency.
