This month I want something orange and earthy to symbolize Fall and all things October-ish.  But the challenge is to avoid refined sugary treats.  So I’m compromising – not a true indulgent dessert, yet it is sweet satisfaction without all that sugar!  Remember I broke up with sugar!

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup strongly brewed chai tea cooled
  • 1 serving protein powder (I use Naked Pea)
  • 5-7 ice cubes
  • ½ cup your choice of non-dairy milk
  • ¼ cup pumpkin (canned, or cooked pieces)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp ground ginger
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg

 

METHOD

  1. Blend all ingredients together and enjoy!
