Come fall I crave all things pumpkin. Not only is this fall squash versatile enough to be incorporated into many delicious baked goods and fall meals, but it also packs some serious health perks. A half-cup of pumpkin contains 100% of your daily vitamin A needs, an important nutrient for eyesight. Pumpkin is also a good source of vitamin C, potassium, and fiber. This smoothie recipe is an easy way to incorporate pumpkin into your day – no cooking required! Pumpkin creates a thick and creamy texture, while a ripe banana adds natural sweetness. The vanilla Enu and pumpkin pie spice combine for a Thanksgiving-inspired smoothie you can enjoy for an on-the-go meal or dessert.
