Pumpkin Smoothie
Pumpkin Smoothie – Delightful Sweet Drink

Another simple recipe to share. I had these pumpkin smoothies served in little winnie-the-pooh short glasses with my pumpkin muffins. This is a perfect use for any leftover pumpkin you have after all the festive cooking. Healthy, sweet and totally yummy!

Ingredients
(Serves 2)

- 100g pumpkin flesh, cut to small pieces
- 150g vanilla ice cream
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 tsp honey
- 1 tsp cinnamon powder
- marshmallows and cinnamon/nutmeg powder (garnishing)

Directions
1. In a blender, grate pumpkin flesh to a fine puree.
2. Add the rest of the ingredients except garnishing ingredients.
3. Process till everything is well blended to a fine consistency.
4. Garnish with some marshmallows and cinnamon powder if you wish.

I think it’s always easier to consume vegetables raw when they are in juice form :)

I like pumpkins and squashs. They are naturally sweet and keeps quite well in the fridge.
