Yes! Absolutely! You definitely want to peel avocados before adding them to your smoothies. Why? Well, if you decided to keep the skin on, you would taint the flavor of the entire smoothie. If you have ever accidentally tasted lemon or orange skin, well, that’s what your smoothie would taste like with avocado skin!
Yes, you can use frozen avocado for this pineapple smoothie. Using frozen avocado is actually a great way to get a really creamy and thick smoothie.
You can use pineapple in both forms. However, I love using frozen fruits because it is great for the texture of your smoothies. You can use ice and fresh fruits, but the texture is a lot thicker in consistency when you use frozen fruits.
Yes, you can freeze these avocado smoothies. You will want to the freezer it as a smoothie. Also, an extra idea is to turn this recipe into popsicles! I absolutely love smoothies turned into popsicles because they are super tasty and last a while. Grab these popsicle molds.

A great tip for blending this pineapple avocado smoothie or technically any smoothie recipe is the following:
Begin with the soft and room-temperature ingredients first. An example of this recipe is the avocado. For other recipes, it may be green apples, bananas, or greens. Combine the soft ingredients with water.
Next, put in the frozen ingredients and blend until pureed. Doing this will keep any chunks of the frozen fruit or ice getting stuck under the blades.
