Are you ready to really get in the holiday spirit?
Are you ready for all the beloved holiday treats but also dreading increasing your waistline or breaking from your healthy habits?
The good news is that you don’t have to sacrifice flavor or deprive yourself this year to stay healthy. There are so many ways to recreate the holiday treats we love with a healthy twist!
I will be doing my best to keep you posted with all the great recipes and ideas that are family favorites in our house throughout the holiday seasons! To kick off the festivities, I joyfully bring you a recipe that has quickly become dear to my heart – *Pumpkin Pie in a GLASS* :D
When you take your very first taste you will be absolutely amazed by how good it is! Truly no exaggerations in the name, it’s pumpkin pie in a glass!
Ingredients:
* 1 can of organic pumpkin pie mix
* 1 frozen banana ( be sure to peel prior to freezing )
* 2 tbs raw organic pecan butter or 2 tbs raw soaked whole pecans
* 1 1/2 tbs raw organic honey
* 1 cup raw milk or milk of choice
* 1 dash of nutmeg
* 1 dash of cinnamon
* 1 dash of pink sea salt
Directions:
Blend all ingredients together, serve, and top with a sprinkle of nutmeg for extra holiday spice :)
Note that I made this smoothie to accommodate the cold Alaskan weather – not too cold. If you prefer a thicker, colder smoothie experience, you have the option of freezing your pumpkin mix prior to blending.
Enjoy, and may the spirit of the season be with you!
