Daily Tidbit: Another smoothie today: a Tropical one with ripe Bananas, fresh Pineapple, Vanilla Yogurt & Romaine. I think I like the flavor of the one yesterday a little more (which used Spinach instead) but the Romaine adds Protein among other things, and made it more crisp and refreshing! Full recipe below.
