So why add pumpkin to your morning smoothie??

  • It contains a lot of vitamin-A, providing about 246% of RDA. Vitamin A is a powerful natural anti-oxidant and is required by the body for maintaining the integrity of skin and is also an essential vitamin for good visual sight.
  • Pumpkin is a great source of fiber with three grams per one-cup serving and only 49 calories, it can keep you feeling full for longer on fewer calories.
  • Pumpkin contains more potassium than a banana with 560mg in one cup of cooked pumpkin!

    Potassium can help restore electrolytes and maintain fluids in your body after a good workout. That ensures your muscles recover properly and helps you avoid cramping.

  • High in Inflammatory Reducing Beta-Cryptoxanthin and Beta-Carotene.  Both of these are powerful antioxidants that help prevent inflammatory disease and strengthen your immune system.

To make this dairy free, we used Silk%20Pure%20Almond%20Vanilla,%2032-Ounce%20(Pack%20of%206)Almond Milk and Coconut Milk Yogurt in this smoothie. If you haven’t tried coconut milk yogurt, it is a great alternative to Greek yogurt.  It is thick and creamy just like Greek yogurt, but dairy-free!
