Tasting like liquid pumpkin pie, this smoothie is bound to start your fall morning off right. Sound crazy? Just try it. I drink a whole one for breakfast, but you can split it into two for smaller smoothies. If you want to use ready-made coconut milk that’s fine. Using the canned allows you to control the thickness. I use organic, BPA-free canned Native Forest. It’s the best. For help choosing a protein powder or a list of alternatives, read this post.
