I don’t even know how to focus on this smoothie as I’m currently shoving a brownie bomb in my face as I write this.
Chocolate, sweet, sweet chocolate, oh how I’ve missed you.
Thing is, I actually feel pretty lame when I post smoothie “recipes”. They feel like part cop-out, part like I’m calling you an idiot for not being able to come up with concoctions to throw in a blender with some ice.
Really though, this is neither. It’s just a pretty freakin’ tasty, simple combination that I hope to be drinking something very similar to in 16 days in the Dominican Republic, on a beach, in one of my new bathing suits.
Maybe with just a weeeee bit of rum though too.

yum– can’t wait to get ready for that vacay!
I was about to say…I hope you DO have one of these in DR, but with some kind of alcomahol in it
haha. This sounds tasty and hey! Sometimes you need a cop-out, easier-than-life recipe and sometimes it’s so delicious that other should know about it. I mean, I can name off 84748973 recipes I’ve seen online where I’ve literally said, “I’d hardly call that a recipe.” BUT THEY’RE STILL DELICIOUS. Anyway, the thing I was getting to with this comment: I’ve never had a kiwi. Don’t hate me. Maybe I should use it in a smoothie to give it a try.
girl! try a damn kiwi!
Yes, rum is an absolute MUST!
I’m so jealous of your upcoming trip!!
Such a simple and wonderfuls smoothie! Love the combo of pineapple and kiwi! Have a great weekend!
This is almost too pretty to drink
Lovely and refreshing!
Enjoy your time a way and great going, completing the Whole30…you deserve that brownie bomb and many more
I sometimes wonder if I should post smoothie recipes, but I think you scored with this one – it looks magnificent and actually, I’ve never thought to put kiwi or mint in a smoothie, so good going!
Since I’m not into the whole smoothie thing yet (someone give me a blendtec and maybe I will be ha) let’s back up a min to the brownie bomb k?
So scrumptious, Gina! This looks so refreshing and good for ya. Thanks for sharing!
Gina, this looks delicious and fresh! Can’t wait to try it!
I’m interested to see if you stick with the paleo going forward. I’m super impressed with your consistency!! And smoothies are always a great recipe for everyone to be reminded of how tasty they are
