Recipe: Its the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!


I don't know about you, but I love Fall. I love everything about it. The weather turning a bit crisp, the smell in the air, the heavier comfort foods, and the holidays.
Another thing I love about Fall is Pumpkin! I am a huge fan and love trying new recipes with it. I adapted this one from another WW post. It does require a WW product, but I think it can be made with Carnation Instant Breakfast Classic French Vanilla.

Pumpkin Vanilla Smoothie
1/2 cup of the canned pureed pumpkin (this is NOT pumpkin pie mix)
1 packet WW Vanilla smoothie
1 cup milk
1 packet of splenda
10 dashes of pumpkin pie spice
3 ice cubes

Add all ingredients and blend until smooth. Enjoy!


To me it tastes like melted pumpkin ice cream or a runny pumpkin pie filling. Also, for ease I use my fancy Immersion blender, so all I do is add everything in my glass and blend away. I highly suggest getting one.
