:drinker:Okay so I too love pumpkin and with fall now I see all the yummy things that I really shouldn't have . I love Starbucks pumpkin Frappuccino and all the shakes drinks everyone makes and I so wanted something that wasn't 200 calories or we all know way higher too in calories. I did treat myself to a Starbucks pumpkin frapp over the weekend and to me well it just wasn't worth the 280 calories for a Grande so off I went to the store to try to make me something yummy lowfat and pumpkin to drink ... I DID IT OMG ...I'm in pumpkin heaven now .Here is my recipe of my Pumpkin Frappuccino and all for just 120 calories too .......... 1/4 cup (45 calories) Eating right No sugar added Vanilla ice cream. 1/2 cup (15 calories) unsweetened Almond milk . 1 to 2 shots espresso or coffee depends on how strong you want it .I used 1 so it's only ( 5 calories ) ( optional if you don't like coffee it's good without it but I like the afternoon boost ). 1/2 cup 100% Libbys Pumpkin in can. 3 to 4 ice cubes.Add as much artificial sweetner as you like. I put 4 equals for I like it real sweet Blend it all in your Magic Bullet or blender.Top it with 2 tablespoons of fat free cool whip I blend my cool whip in the mix it makes it really creamy. Then top it with a shake or two of pumpkin pie all spice spice ....Sip, sip, sip until your in heaven. I know I was. I will have this with my lunch or for my lunch and not feel like I am missing out on all these yummy fall beverages anymore HOPE SOMEONE ENJOYS THIS AS MUCH AS I DO I AM A STARBUCKS ADDICT ! Starbucks can't even make a 120 calorie drink for ya that is this yummy I ROCK LOL!

    My morning hot spiced pumpkin chai latte

    Brew cup of spice chai tea

    add to blender - add 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
    1 scoop vanilla whey protein powder or use oats and whey if you want a bit more fiber and carbs
    shot or two of pumpkin pie spice
    and if you like a bit of a kick add a pinch cayenne pepper

    comes in around 120 calories with 22gm protein 4 gm fiber if you use the plain whey and around 250 calories with 25 gm protein and 10 gm fiber if you use the oats and whey.

    A meal in a cup!
