Last year, I made a pretty simple change to my diet. I began drinking smoothies twice a day. I have to tell you this is one easy way to add fruits and veggies into your diet on a daily basis, and your body will love you for it. I feel a noticeable difference in my overall health!
With Fall quickly approaching, this gives me the perfect opportunity to share one of my favorite smoothie recipes, a Pumpkin Smoothie. I don't know about you but there is just something about the cool, crispness of the Fall air that starts my taste buds craving pumpkin.
Ingredients:
1/3 can, canned pumpkin (15oz) or 5 oz homemade puree
1 Tbsp raw honey or agave nectar
1 Tbsp Cinnamon
2 tsp Ginger
1 cup unsweetened almond milk (I recommend homemade)
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/2 frozen banana
Directions:
Add all the ingredients into a high powered blender. Blend until smooth and creamy. Enjoy! (makes 2 servings)
*Note: Be sure to tweak this recipe to your own taste buds. Add more of less of the spices or sweetener and be sure to experiment with additional spices. I think adding some nutmeg would be fantastic, too!
