💡 Always use frozen pineapple and banana for a thick, shake-like texture — skip the ice to avoid watering down the smoothie.
🥄 If your blender struggles, let the frozen fruit sit on the counter for about 10 minutes before blending to soften slightly.
🌱 For a fully dairy-free version, swap the cottage cheese for silken tofu or simply use a plant-based protein powder.
