Recipe Notes
- To get your pumpkin pie protein smoothie to the perfect smooth texture, you need something high-powered
- Instead of prepared pumpkin pie spice, I just added some cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and vanilla.
- The ground flax seeds not only add a healthy dose of omega-3 but also help thicken the smoothie. You could add ground chia seeds for the same effect.
