Known as pitaya, dragon fruit, and strawberry pear, people can’t seem to get enough of this vibrant, tropical fruit! Since most tropical fruits can be a bit pricey when they’re fresh, we like using frozen pitaya – available in your supermarket’s freezer aisle 365 days a year. Not only does the red or pink variety offer bold, beautiful color to your favorite smoothies and smoothie bowls, it also delivers immune-supporting antioxidants and about 4 grams of fiber in a one-cup serving.
