Peel the banana, wrap in plastic wrap and place in the freezer at least 12 hours before making the smoothie. It’s easy to store a few bananas in the freezer since they’ll keep almost indefinitely. When ready to make, remove the plastic wrap and cut the banana in 6 pieces with a sharp knife. Pour the pineapple juice in a blender while it is in the OFF position, and add the coconut oil and banana pieces. Turn the blender ON (make sure the cover is on the carafe), and while it’s whirring, remove the cover and add the Swanson Whey Protein Powder, the honey and the ginger. Blend for a minute or so until the consistency is smooth and creamy. Pour in a 16-ounce glass or into the shell of carved-out pineapple and drink through a straw. In about 10 minutes you will feel electrified and ready to do something fun!
