In this recipe I created a highly nutritious sports lunch for two, combining sweet and savory ingredients from Brazil, the host country of the 2016 Olympics. While it’s important for anyone to eat well in order to stay fit and healthy, it’s especially important to fuel your body with the right nutrition when competing or being very active.
In this smoothie I combined fresh pineapple with coconut water and shredded unsweetened coconut to create a fresh summer flavor. We drink smoothies almost every morning because it is a delicious opportunity to add your daily amount of vitamins, proteins, and omega 3 to your diet. Did you know, only 150 g (~ 1 cup) of fresh pineapple will provide over 100% of your recommended daily Vitamin C intake?
