Spiced Pumpkin Smoothie

Another delicious smoothie. It's sweetened using a banana, but pumpkin is the star of this smoothie!

Ingredients
1 large banana (ripe is best)

2 cups of almond milk (frozen in an ice tray)
1 cup of pumpkin puree

1 cup of almond milk
1/2 cup of applesauce

1/8 tsp ground cinnamon

Directions

Combine all ingredients in a blender and mix until well blended. Enjoy as a dessert or as an afternoon snack. Makes 4 - 6 servings.

Coffee is one of my favorite drinks to enjoy in the morning. In an effort to avoid adding sugar, I try different things to spice it up. I enjoy adding a cinnamon stick, coffee creamer, and a 1/8 tsp of cinnamon spice blend to my coffee. No need for sugar!
