Pumpkin Spice Smoothie (dairy free)

Jump to Recipe

Yes, another pumpkin recipe.   It is that time of year.   And today I’m sharing with you my all time favorite smoothie recipe:  Pumpkin Spice Smoothie.

All I can say is that this smoothie is like drinking a piece of pumpkin pie.  And I LOVE pumpkin pie!

Once the weather gets cooler, I usually don’t drink too many smoothies.  But smoothies are my favorite way to get my daily dose of gelatin into my diet. I use collagen peptides from Vital Proteins as it dissolves easily in cold liquids.   The regular grass fed gelatin is cooking with and needs to heated up in order to dissolve. Gelatin has so many awesome health benefits.  Read more about that HERE.

Loaded with healthy fats from coconuts, hearty antioxidant rich pumpkin, protein and gut healing goodness from grass fed gelatin, and warming spices, this smoothie packs a real nutrient-dense punch.  I sweeten it just a titch with maple syrup.  Feel free to add a bit more for a decadent dessert.

I’ve been making this in the mornings lately, and everyone in the house has been loving it.  The cinnamon and ginger are so comforting and warming.  I hope you enjoy!

xo,

Katja

how do you start your day? 💪🏃‍♀️🧘🏽‍♀️🚴🏽‍♂️☕️

mindset mindset mindset 🧠🧠• having a morning routine allows us to set an intention for the day rather then just letting the day run away from us • it helps determine our mind set and the tone for the rest of the day ✨✨

things like meditation, journaling, yoga, exercise, and other self-care practices can help us start the day feeling calm and inspired 🧘🏻 • consciously selecting the thoughts we have, the foods we eat , and the news/social media/images we see matters • a solid morning routine can reduce stress, boost energy, increase mental clarity, and leave us feeling 🤩

creating a morning routine looks different for us all • routine comes easier for some than others • we all have different priorities, time limits, physical needs/abilities, and health concerns there • are no rules • find what works for you 

i know that i feel better when i stick to my morning routine • i know that i feel better when i don’t engage with my phone or social media the first hour or two after waking up • i know i feel better when i consciously select what i bring into my head space first thing in the morning, including the thoughts that i have 

my morning routine currently looks like this:  10 minutes of quiet meditation, some form of elimination pathways opening like Gua Sha, coffee e nema, an epsom salts bath, or a sauna, yoga/workout, and a big green juice 🥬🥒🍏

👉👉 do you have a morning routine?  i’d love to hear how you start your day • leave me a comment below ⤵️⤵️
