Coconut Pineapple Pumpkin Seed Smoothie image

I got the idea of making ice cubes with coconut milk from the nutritionist Jonny Bowden. You get the welcome coconut flavor, always compatible with pineapple, and the icy texture, but not so much coconut milk that the calories skyrocket.

This smoothie was a great way to use up some leftover coconut milk. It was also a nice change from my usual green smoothies.

I thought this smoothie was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This smoothie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's because I used frozen pineapple. Next time I'll use fresh pineapple and see if that makes a difference.

I'm not usually a fan of pumpkin seeds in my smoothies, but they really worked in this recipe. They added a nice crunch and a nutty flavor.
