The original island word for pineapple means “beautiful fruit” and indeed it is. While far more nutritious in its fresh, raw form, frozen pineapple still has great low-fat, high-vitamin C food value. Fun tip: cut the banana into small wheels and freeze for an hour before blending for a richer, thicker smoothie with a texture almost like ice cream.
