Welcome to the first full day of Autumn where we can “officially” start our pumpkin spice consumption. Well really, who am I kidding, I started a few weeks ago. But now that the weather is cooler and the days are shortening, we start to get into the warm flavors of fall. Hello, pumpkin everything!!🎃
A Pumpkin Spice Smoothie for Fall??
Don’t worry, I’m not going to send you into a deep freeze. I know all too well what it’s like to drink a cold smoothie on a cold day. Brrrrrr!!! It’s a bit much and can be too cooling for us, especially when we need to work overtime to stay warm. Hello to the warm smoothie! Yes, you heard me and you are going to fall in love with this recipe!

This was magical! The perfect transition from cold smoothie season into fall.
Pumpkins have numerous health benefits. One of my favorite benefits this time of year is that pumpkin is high in vitamins A and C, which can help boost your immune system. Its supply of vitamin E, iron, and folate may also strengthen your immunity as well. Delicious and good for you! WIN WIN !!
