    I totally made this, and it rocks! Thank you for such a great idea :) I did make a few changes/additions:

    For 1 serving:
    1 banana; 1/2 cup pure pumpkin; 1/4 cup of greek yogurt; 1 tsp brown sugar; 1 1/2 cups of cooled brewed chai tea; 4 ice cubes; 1 tsp of pure vanilla extract; lots of pumpkin pie spice, and cinnamon. It's so yummy and filling :) Oh, and I did this with my Bullet.

    Makes a BIG serving!!! Approx 200 cals.

    I make a protein shake with pumpkin- delish!

    Blend together:
    1/4 cup canned pumpkin
    1 cup unsweetened almond/coconut milk
    1 scoop vanilla protein powder
    1/4 cup chai tea (optional)
    pumpkin pie spice to taste
    handful of ice

    Yum!

    Ah! I was totally gonna use the almond milk....but sadly it had far expired...oops! Next time :)

    Mine is under 200 calories and has 25 grams of protein.

    What do you mean by not pie filling? The stuff I get is pie filling in a can but it's one ingredient: pumpkin. Do you mean not spiced?

    I am sure that is what she means - you can buy pre sweetened and spiced mixes.

    I tried a pumpkin smoothie recipe last year and it was TERRIBLE, I can't remember the recipe but it was not edible. This is a smaller version- I will try it. I'm not a big maple person so I will try it with the banana. Would honey work?

    It's in the baking aisle, near pie filling. Usually right next to pumpkin pie filling!

    Pumpkin pie filling has spices already mixed in like you said but it also has sugar. The pure pumpkin is a cleaner ingredient. Enjoy!

    Honey is good! And then if you still don't like it just keep adding honey :laugh:

    105 Calorie Delicious Pumpkin Cheesecake
    2 months ago by Aliciaaah

    I call it Cheesecake Pumpudding. Enjoy!

    1/2 Cup Silk Pure Almond Unsweetened Almond Milk (15 Calories)
    1/2 Cup Libby's Pure Pumpkin Puree (40 Calories)
    1/2 Packet Jello Sugar Free Cheesecake Pudding (50 Calories)
    Pumpkin Spice to taste (Start with 1/2 tsp, it can be strong stuff)
    Sweetener to taste (I use some Splenda, but it really doesn't need it, just adds that extra sweetness)

    Just whisk the milk and pudding for a bit, add the pumpkin and spices and it's ready to eat immediately. ...
