What is this? A protein smoothie on Girl Versus Dough? Believe it, folks. And with one sip of this Peach Pineapple Chai Smoothie, you’ll understand why it’s worth talking about.
I’ve said it before — I’m not much of a smoothie drinker. I’ve tried a few times to be that person, the one who glows from within because she drinks all the green/protein/superfood smoothies, but I just can’t. I would rather eat my food than drink it, I guess. Plus, I am never very good at making a smoothie that is not only good for me, but is tasty, too. One is always compromised for the other.
But with this smoothie, there’s a special ingredient that pulls it all together into something I could sip on all day, every day. It’s revolutionary.
? SPOILER ALERT: It’s that stuff right up there. ? And it’ll change your smoothie-lovin’ life.
To be honest, I was hesitant to add Bob’s Chai Protein Powder Nutritional Booster, but with one sip, I knew — this is what my smoothies have been missing all along. It’s full of classic chai flavor with a creamy, smooth texture and slight crunch from the chia seeds, along with a powerhouse list of nutritious ingredients. I added a hefty handful of peaches and pineapple and a splash of almond milk to this variation, but as you may have guessed, this smoothie is v. v. versatile.
You can use fresh or frozen peaches/pineapples, or swap the fruit for your own favorite, such as mango or cherries. Swap the almond milk for coconut milk or regular dairy milk, add a dollop of nut butter, a skosh of ginger, etc. etc. There are so many options to try, this recipe alone might turn me into a regular smoothie drinker/lover.
Let’s all glow from within, chai smoothie-style.

I got everything, except the chia protein powder, only to find out it’s been discontinued. But will substitute something else.
So gorgeous, I want to sip on this smoothie all summer long!
I never did jump on the super healthy smoothie band wagon either. The thought of drinking something full of kale for my meal just didn’t appeal to me very much. Now this smoothie I could drink and love the peach and pineapple combo!
Ok, I’m not one to be able to SURVIVE on smoothies as a meal replacement, however, I do enjoy a healthy smoothie or green juice for a snack. I usually just do a berry variation, but I am LOVING this peach/pineapple concoction, and I’ve got to get my hands on that chai protein powder! Brilliant!
I’ve been eyeing this Chai protein powder for months – I really do need to try it!!
Kari — It’s so delicious! Definitely a new favorite. 🙂
Jessica — You definitely do!
