Pineapple Strawberry Raspberry Smoothie Recipe

Pineapple Strawberry Raspberry Smoothie Recipe is a favorite for a busy morning breakfast.

We've been on a smoothie kick lately and with back to school right around the corner I figure there's no better time share our favorite busy morning breakfast Pineapple Strawberry Raspberry Smoothie.

Smoothies are a staple in our house since they are so easy to make and delicious.

These are our go to breakfast when the kids forget to do their homework the night before, one of the kids shoes turns up missing, and the dog somehow got into the garbage can and made a huge mess. Or the best mornings are when buddy sneaks out the door as the oldest is leaving for school and I have to toss on stretch pants and run around the neighborhood chasing after him as he stops to look at me, waits till I get close, and then he takes off at 90 miles an hour only to finally decide he's tired and return home with about 20 minutes to get the kids out the door to school.

I hope I'm not alone in this kind of morning excitement.

I usually sneak in a few veggies but for this particular combo Colt and the kids picked 
Pineapple Strawberry Raspberry Banana.

Favorite facts: Did you know Pineapple contains a anti-imflammatory enzyme called bromelain? 
Bromelian naturally helps reduce inflammation in the body.

The best way to choose a fresh pineapple is by smell, if it smells like a sweet pineapple it's ready to eat, if the pineapple doesn't smell sweet it will not ripen any further at home.

 Pineapples stop ripening once picked unlike other fruit.


Strawberries Raspberries Banana and yogurt to make smoothie recipe.


Gather pineapple, strawberries, raspberries, bananas, yogurt, milk and ice.

Sliced Bananas for Smoothies.

Slice bananas or peel and toss into blender whole.

Sliced Stemmed Strawberries.

Stem strawberries.

Pineapple Slices

Remove the skin off the pineapple and cut off the top and bottom. We leave the core intact since it has the highest amount of bromelian.

When I was a child Granny would cut the core out of a sweet pineapple and let me eat it as a treat. I find as long as the pineapple is ripe the core is good to eat other then being more fibrous. 


Add 1 cup of each of the following pineapple, raspberries and strawberries. Add 2 peeled banana's. 

Add yogurt and milk to strawberry bananas to make smoothies.

Add 1 cup yogurt and 1 cup milk. 

I've more recently been adding a scoop of Vanilla Protein Powder. 

If you are dairy free you can sub your choice of milk (Coconut or Almond is good) for the yogurt.

Add ice to yogurt strawberry pineapple banana mixture and blend to make smoothies.


Add 1 cup ice and blend until smooth. Leftovers are tasty frozen into popsicles for an afternoon treat.

You might want to correct the spelling in your article though. :) So nice of you to stop over at my blog. Meanwhile, I look forward to following yours. Pinning! xo

  5. Our puppy's name is buddy too. Our mornings before school and work are just as crazy as yours if that makes you feel any better. The only difference is we live in an apartment here in Hong Kong so the farthest the dog can run is to the neighbors door across the hall. My youngest boy has smoothies every morning before school and he starts school tomorrow and we have some fresh pineapple in the fridge so will have to give your recipe a try. Take Care, BAM

  7. What a beautiful smoothie, although I would have to change the pineapple because bromelain can cause a number on my stomach. Great pics.
