Happy Thanksgiving - Pumpkin Pie Smoothie Recipe

Happy Thanksgiving! Wishing you a wonderful day with family and friends.

I wanted to thank you all for being part of my community. I am grateful to have so many wonderful people in my life.

My gift to you is sharing this delicious pumpkin pie smoothie recipe with you.

Pumpkin is full of Vitamins A, C, E, and K, and it delivers substantial amounts of iron, magnesium, potassium, and manganese. Because I don’t tolerate dairy, I omitted yogurt. However if you can have dairy without a problem, adding a good greek yogurt would add to the texture. Another ingredient I used is Pumpkin Pie Spice. You may not have it on hand but can make it by blending combinations of cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg (a little more cinnamon than the other two), with optional cloves, allspice, and mace.

Here is my Pumpkin Pie Smoothie, I hope you enjoy!

This recipe was made in my Vitamix. You may have to scale it according to your blender's size.
