Is it just me or does if feel absolutely essential that something pumpkin-y enter your body on Halloween Day?
Not only will we be eating chili, snacking on hummus andpopcorn snack mixtomorrow, but we will also be starting the day with these amazing Pumpkin Smoothies.
These are the next best thing to eating pie for breakfast!
I used unsweetened vanilla soy milk as my base, but feel free to use any milk you prefer.
I also added a couple tablespoons of protein powder in the mix because I had just come back from a strength training workout at the gym; plus, I like the flavor it adds. But it’s certainly not an essential ingredient, so if protein powder is not your thing, just know you can skip it and still have a delicious smoothie (that kids love too!).
Happy Halloween!
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla soy milk I like WestSoy or any milk you prefer
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 frozen banana
- 2 tbsp vanilla protein powder
- 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- Small handful ice cubes
Instructions
- Pop everything into the blender and blend until rich and creamy. Enjoy!
