If you’ve got some fresh fruit that looks like it’s about to go off, try freezing it instead and using it later for a delicious and nutritious smoothie. This recipe, by Mariana, uses berries (rich in antioxidants), bananas (a mighty source of potassium), and immunity-boosting pineapple, but you can include any fruits you have on hand that you’re trying to use up.

Tip: Blending time can last 3-4 minutes or until you find the right consistency

DIRECTIONS:

1. Add ingredients to a blender.
2. Blend until smooth and serve immediately.
