Ingredients

    1 banana, frozen
    1/4 cup organic plain Greek yogurt
    1/4 cup of pumpkin puree
    1 tablespoon of peanut butter (I like Smart Balance crunchy)
    1/4 - 1/2 cup of vanilla almond milk
    1 tsp. of honey
    Pinch each of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg & cloves (most cinnamon, least cloves)

Tips

You can really play around with the amount of spices and other ingredients to make it to your own personal taste. Some other ingredients that would be good to add are a handful of chocolate chips, or oatmeal.


Directions

Add all ingredients in a blender, add the almond milk last and just enough to almost but not quite cover the other ingredients. You can add the amount you want to make a thicker or runnier smoothie. Blend everything together for about a minute or until everything is smooth and mixed together. I like to put it in the freezer for about 30 minutes so it's nice and cold. You could add ice with your other ingredients but I find that waters down the taste.

Serving Size: Makes 1 large smoothie (about 12 ozs)
