Here is a tasty smoothie recipe for these wintery days. We enjoy for breakfast or an after dinner treat! A great breakfast or snack to serve your holiday guests.
Apple Pie Smoothie
Makes 2 Servings (1 if you’re really hungry :)
1 organic Granny Smith apple, cored and diced, frozen
1/2 of an organic cucumber, peeled and cut in chunks, frozen
Large handful of spinach or kale, frozen
1/2 of a large avocado
2 Tbsp raw pumpkin seeds, walnuts or pecans
1 Tbsp cinnamon (to taste)
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1 tsp vanilla extract
10-15 drops pure liquid stevia
1 1/2 cups unsweetened organic vanilla almond milk
1 scoop vanilla or plain protein powder (Maximized Living Perfect Protein or Garden of Life Raw Meal are great options!)
Place all ingredients in blender and blend until smooth, stopping to stir and scrape sides as needed. Consume immediately. Who ever said you can’t enjoy apple pie for breakfast? :)
Now, don’t forget to enter the giveaway! It’s easy, and you might win a free copy of Season’s Eatings!
Can’t wait to try the Apple Pie smoothie. Can’t wait for Christmas either, when my daughter comes home (to Ontario, Canada) from Vancouver, B.C. Another fave Christmas carol is Oh Little Town of Bethlehem. Merry Christmas!
You’ll love the Apple Pie Smoothie! It hits the spot! Glad to hear your daughter will be home for Christmas. It’s so much fun when family is home for the holidays! In my case, I’m the daughter going home this year. :)
