Anti-Inflammatory Pineapple Ginger Smoothie

I wanted to share what has become one of my favorite smoothies over the past few weeks.  With my continuous food sensitives, I regularly attempt to eat and drink foods which help with inflammation. This smoothie has a combination of ingredients which help with inflammation and is also delicious! 
Anti-Inflammatory Pineapple Ginger Smoothie 
  • 2 cups ripe pineapple 
  • 1 cup ripe mango (I’ve been using frozen) 
  • 1 piece of ginger (about 3 inches)
  • 1 cup coconut water
  • 1 tsp fresh vanilla 
The original recipe also calls for 1/2  cup of celery but I recently discovered I am sensitive to it and avoid it.
I’ve been using my regular blender but if you do not have a high power blender, it may be best to use a ninja or vitamix
Also, I recommend mixing things up and enjoying your smoothie in a different type of glass. This morning I decided to use one of my wine glasses Life is too short to not enjoy what you have.

    That looks delicious! I have inflammatory issues ( hence the gluten free diet) and this looks great! Thanks my friend!

    This looks great, and I bet it would be good for Jared with his food sensitivities! Thanks for sharing!
