Pumpkin Smoothie

If your family is like mine, sometimes getting the required fruit and veggies are a chore or sometimes even a battle.  I have one little boy who refuses to eat his veggies and will only eat fruit if it is freeze dried or pureed.  So we have opted for a pureed method we can all enjoy, SMOOTHIES!

I got this one from Family Fun Magazine and it was a hit with everyone.

Pumpkin Smoothie
Makes 4 small smoothies

3/4 cup canned pumpkin
1 cup vanilla yogurt
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
2 tsp. brown sugar
10 ice cubes

Combine ingredients in blender and puree until smooth.

Pour the smoothies into small glasses  and garnish each with a dollop of vanilla yogurt or whipped topping.
