IS CANNED PUMPKIN GOOD FOR YOU?

Yes, canned pumpkin is good for you and is an easy way to get in more vegetables! Make sure you buy organic canned pumpkin in BPA free cans to ensure that you're getting the best pumpkin quality for your body.

Canned pumpkin is great for fiber and beta carotene, both of which support gut health and overall weight loss!

TIPS TO MAKE THE MOST DELICIOUS HEALTHY PUMPKIN PIE SMOOTHIE

Use an extra ripe banana or dates. Either of these is going to give you that really sweet pumpkin pie flavor, but without the added sugar.

Use vanilla yogurt, and vanilla milk. Both of these will add a delicious vanilla flavor to your pumpkin smoothie. Make sure you choose yogurt and milk with as little added sugar as possible for the healthiest smoothie.

Add ice cubes! Believe it or not, this was the first time I used ice cubes in my smoothie and it turned out so good! The ice cubes added a delicious cold and smooth texture, without having to add too much "stuff" into my smoothie.

HOW TO MAKE MY HEALTHY PUMPKIN SMOOTHIE IN ANY BLENDER!

This smoothie is so easy to make and you can use any blender that you have! My most asked question is what blender should be used to make smoothies? And really, any blender will work. I'm showing you how to make this one today in a small hand held blender rather than my big one.

STEP 1: add ingredients to your blender

In your blender, add:

• 1 frozen banana
• ½ cup canned or fresh pumpkin puree
• ½ cup vanilla yogurt
• Hand full ice cubes
• ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
• ½ cup milk of choice

STEP 2: blend and enjoy!

Blend your smoothie till there are no frozen banana or ice cube chunks left. Garnish with a little sprinkle of cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice on top.

Hope you guys love this one as much as we did!

My original pumpkin smoothie jar was made with a base of pumpkin pie spice chia pudding (2 tablespoons chia seeds, ½ cup soy milk, ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice) and topped with a sweet potato smoothie (½ cup sweet potato, 3 frozen bananas, 1 scoop collagen powder).

While my smoothie jars are so gorgeous to look at, they're not the most convenient. So, I updated this pumpkin spice smoothie jar into an easy to make drinkable pumpkin pie smoothie. I hope you guys love the new version as much as we did!
