It’s everything pumpkin time but this delicious smoothie can be made year-round and put your mind right back into this wonderful time of year!
It’s important to note that this recipe uses canned pumpkin puree. This is NOT the canned pumpkin used for pumpkin pies. There are a lot of great organic pumpkin puree choices out there and my rule of thumb is if it has a picture of a pumpkin pie, pass it by. Not saying there aren’t pumpkin puree cans with that picture, but many are the canned pumpkin for pumpkin pie recipes.
