I love, love, love this smoothie.  Even though I drink lots of smoothies, this one is definitely my favorite recipe so far.
Includes Nuts & Dairy
Primary Nutrition Info (less whey protein option):

(Since whey protein powders vary, please add your nutrition label information to the above if you choose to include a scoop.) 
Ingredients:
1 kiwi, peeled and sliced
3/4 cup of pineapple chunks
5 almonds
1 over ripe banana
1 pkg of key lime Greek fat free yogurt
1 cup of unsweetened almond milk
1-2 cubes of ice
1 scoop of vanilla protein powder (optional)


Mix all ingredients with a hand blender or in a traditional blender and enjoy!

*This is so yummy that the generic name of 'Tropical Smoothie' just doesn't do it justice.  I would love some ideas from other people and whoever comes up with the best name will receive credit on That Sexy Dish! homepage and on my Instagram.  

I will say that I have always been a huge fan of the 80's t.v. series, Magnum P.I.  If any idea entries include a nod to the show, I would love it!

*Update: My good friend Jen provided the winning name: The 'Island Hopper' Tropical Smoothie.  Thanks so much!
