Pumpkin Pie Smoothie

      I decided to create a healthy "Pumpkin Pie Smoothie" to satisfy my Fall/Pumpkin obsession. It took a couple times to get the recipe to my liking. I've had this smoothie for breakfast the past three mornings! It's great to just grab and sip on the way out the door. I am obsessed with it and can't get enough! I promise you will love it too! This shake is completely healthy and contains two super-foods! I am so happy with this recipe as it allows me to indulge in one of my favorite foods without feeling guilty. I have included the recipe below for you to try!

*Super foods: Oats and yogurt.

Pumpkin pie spice to taste

Splenda stevia to taste 

Crushed ice
