Pumpkin Smoothie

I've been drinking these for months and meant to share when it was the fall season - but I didn't get around to it.  These are a great, quick, filling breakfast!  I love to make them or green smoothies. 

8 oz Silk Almond milk - 90
1 banana - 70
1/2 can pumpkin - 83
1 tsp vanilla - 12
Cinnamon - 6
Ginger - 6
1 tbsp raisins - 33

Total: 300

The original recipe called for 1 tbsp brown sugar or maple syrup.  I used the brown sugar, but have since replaced it with raisins or I skip this part completely.  I am not very tech savvy, so my little X through the tbsp of brown sugar looks a little goofy, but hey -I tried!  I love buying the little 4 packs of almond milk, they're delicious and so handy to grab on the go if necessary with a piece of fruit for a snack or quick light meal. 

The recipe calls for 1/2 can pumpkin.  To measure, I spread it in a container then scored it in half with a butter knife.  I have since cut the recipe down to 1/3 can of pumpkin because 1/2 is too pumpkin-ey.  I am a pumpkin fanatic, so if it's too pumpkin-ey for me, it's really full of pumpkin!  I just do this then score it in 3 sections, makes a quick  breakfast for 3 days of the week - talk about a cheap recipe too!

All blended and ready to rock in my 'Wickedly Sinful' Vegas cup... mmmm.  Great to sip on while getting ready in the morning.  Drinking my breakfast out of this glass with rock & roll blaring through the house makes me feel like a Rockstar and I know it's going to be a damn good day!

So thick, creamy and delicious!!  It def eats like a meal, I don't get hungry for hours.  Fiber, protein, and lots of great nutrients with the pumpkin and banana!  I love this breakfast!
