    This is really good (and you can also make it with plain yogurt and less orange juice to cut down on carbs). I used 3/4 tsp pumpkin pie spice instead of the cinn/nutmeg/cloves to cut down on time. - 11/6/09

    ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! I loved this smoothie! Made it last night after my workout, and saved the second half for my breakfast and it stayed PERFECT in the fridge! Thanks so much for this wonderful filling smoothie recipe! - 3/26/09

    Very Good
    I really liked this recipe but felt the banana overpowered the pumpkin, will make it again but put in half a banana instead. Thanks! - 11/8/13

    Good
    I made this today, but used apple juice instead of OJ. It was good, but I would have loved it if it had more of a pumpkin flavor.
