Vegan Pumpkin Pie Smoothie

September 14, 2011 by Tracey 1 Comment

Now that school has officially started, it’s now fall. Even San Diego when fall usually means an extended (or Indian) summer until November, it’s still fall in my mind. So what better time to start breaking out the pumpkin recipes.

The Blender Girl at Healthy Blender Recipes has this amazing vegan pumpkin pie smoothie. I love anything pumpkin and this smoothie tasted just like a pumpkin pie. I used organic cow’s milk instead of soy or rice, as well as honey instead of agave – and it was delicious.
