Nutrient packed Pumpkin Beverages: All the taste without the crap

1218574-bigthumbnail

It’s pumpkin season.  This year I created a beverage  that will satisfy your pumpkin craving and sweet tooth with no regrets.

Pumpkin Chocolate Milk

1 cup unsweetened cashew/almond milk (I find cashew milk to be creamier)

1/4 cup light coconut milk

1/4 cup pumpkin puree

1/2 frozen banana

2 tsp cacao powder

1 tsp pumpkin pie spice

1 tsp vanilla extract

stevia to taste

Place everything in a blender and blend until smooth.

If you want to make this into a heartier shake add an additional 1/4 cup of pumpkin puree, and a tsp each of chia seeds, flax seeds and maca powder.
