1. Add 1/4 cup of bottled or filtered water into your blender2. Add 1/4 cup canned pumpkin into the blender3. Add 2 tbsp cool whip into the blender (thawed, not frozen) into the blender4. Add instant coffee. I use a tbsp, but there wasn't an option for that. You can use liquid coffee, or decaf cofee (though I prefer the kick in the morning!) Feel free to add your own amount without it changing the value of the shake much. Some people really like it stronger tasting. Or, omit if you don't like coffee! :)5. Add ground cinnamon 1 tsp. Again, you can change this up a bit depending on your taste preferance or omit it. I like to add it because cinnamon several studies have shown improved insulin sensitivity and blood glucose control by taking as little as ½ teaspoon of cinnamon per day. 6. Add 2 packets (2 tsps) of Splenda or whatever is your choice of sugar substitute, or omit. I prefer my shakes a little on the "sweet" side.7. 1 schoop of Vanilla Jay Robb Protein (You can use any protein powder you want, but this is my favorite and you can't beat the nutrional value of 110 calories and only 1 carb!)7. Mix well in blender for about 30 seconds or longer if adding ice cubes. ( I add about 3 cubes)Calories 162.4, Total Fat 1.7 g, Total Carbohydrate 11.1 g , Dietary Fiber 3.0 g, Protein 25.8 g
