Pumpkin Pie GREEN Smoothie.
I know what you're thinking...
"Gross! Anything pumpkin related should NOT be GREEN!"
(That's what I thought too!)
But I'm telling you, the Minimalist Baker has done it again! She made a "good for you" GREEN smoothie that tastes just like pumpkin pie! I'm not kidding!
So those of you out there who know me, know I'm a total Lover-Of-All-Things-Autumn and that once Fall hits I get mad cravings for Pumpkin Pie, Pumpkin Spice Lattes, Apple Crisp, Pumpkin Muffins, Molasses Cookies, and anything else that's sweet, comforting, and full of spice!
Problem is, this girl is doing her darndest to rock her best health and she knows that sugar, additives, eggs and gluten are not her friends.
So this is why I am always on the lookout for yummy, whole food, Fall treats.
Luckily, I found this one.
The Pumpkin Pie GREEN Smoothie
For my smoothie lovers, it's a real treat. (I dare say you could even top it with coconut whipped cream for the full pumpkin pie experience!)
Have Fun! And Happy Fall Y'All!
PS
I used homemade almond milk as a base! Wowza!

Sometimes I mix up the greens: spinach, baby chard, baby kale, beet greens, carrot greens, etc. It's a good way to get a little variety in your diet and to use seasonal greens when you might not know what to do with them!
PPPS
Get a good pumpkin pie spice--the spicier the better! OR mix your own using cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and cloves!
