Green Smoothie With Pineapple, Arugula, Greens and Cashews image

Pineapple can stand alone as a fruit to combine with greens in a smoothie. No bananas are required. I did add a piece of ginger to this smoothie and loved the way it pumped up the flavor. I didn't use any dairy in this one, just orange juice. And I found that it required no additional sweetener, though you could add a teaspoon of agave nectar or honey if you wish. It's best to use the pungent, feathery wild arugula for this. I used a baby greens mix that included kale, chard and spinach.
