    I added a scoop of protein powder and benefiber and nutmeg and ginger and allspice and omitted the apple for 1/4 cup light apple juice. It tasted like pumpkin pie. - 6/4/11

    i did a little makeover to this one and really liked the results. i used plain yogurt instead of vanilla, pumpkin pie spice instead of cinnamon, and i omitted the ice (personal preference). i also added a scoop of vanilla whey protein powder. it was super tasty. i will definitely make it again! - 11/9/11

    I was able to drink it but I felt the apple was a little over powering. I was hoping for a sweet pumpkin pie flavor and got more of an applesauce flavored with pumpkin thing. I wouldn't make this one again. If I did I would leave out the apple and add in more banana. - 1/28/11

    I was expecting a pumpkin pie flavor but like the others said, the apple/banana was over powering. Will not make it this way again but with some modifications .. maybe. - 3/29/12

    Very good. I decided to try this as I had leftover pumpkin puree. I do have to admit that I wasn't so sure about the addition of the apple but was pleasantly surprised. Very fresh tasting and filling. - 11/27/11

    I haven't tried this smoothie recipe yet, but it loks like something I would like. I have to admit I never really thought of apple as combining with those other flavors in a smoothie :) I'll come back and rate this one after I've actually made it - 11/7/11

    Very tasty! I didn't have an apple so I used a half cup of blackberries instead. Very fresh fruity taste that way, but berries overpowered the pumpkin too much, will have to try again with an apple! Carb count is 1/3 of my daily recommended, but substitutions can be made. Or drink half and save rest - 3/6/12

    This was not good at all, even after I added some honey. It was too thick, and tasted bad. Sorry, Meg. - 1/5/12

    I use Tofu instead of Yogurt. It takes on the flavor of whatever you are making. So I'll try, but with many substitutes listed and leaving out apple and banana. - 12/28/11

    I was just not impressed with this recipe at all. I followed it exactly as directed. It was not sweet at all, even with a very ripe banana. I expected it to taste more like pumpkin, but the apple really changed it. I don't think I'll make it again. - 11/8/11

    Yes - I've printed this out, and already noted my amendments! Such as, I'll need to buy pumpkin (or some other squash) and cook it ready to puree. Some lime juice. I'll omit the cinnamon. I'll use my Greek yogurt. And I'll leave my banana to eat for my breakfast. DH diabetic, so won't take this. - 11/8/11

    Think I made to many changes to be able to rate this recipe. Froze the banana & pumpkin, used plain LF greek yogurt, omitted ice and added a little apple juice & almond milk as it was blending, topped it with fresh grated nutmeg & cinnamon. Half way through drinking, added a little agave for sweet. - 11/7/11

    I would love to try this, but being diabetic, it's too high in carbs. I may try it with the apple and no banana, and swith it to see which way I prefer. I like the idea of adding protein powder or nuts too! - 11/7/11
