Creamy Pumpkin Egg Nog
What do you do when you have leftover pumpkin puree? You either make Pumpkin Spice Pancakes, Pumpkin Hot Chocolate or if you have some egg nog leftover you make this drink! I would call this a smoothie, but it’s so sweet and delicious I’d rather call it a treat. I threw in some protein powder so I could call it “healthy” 😉 Remember the trick to the perfect chilled smoothie is to use frozen bananas. But if you don’t have any frozen add some ice cubes.
Creamy Pumpkin Egg Nog
Makes 1 serving
1/2 cup So Delicious Coconut Milk Nog (or other brand egg nog)
1 cup unsweetened rice milk
1 frozen banana
1/4 cup pumpkin puree
1-2 tablespoon protein powder
1 tablespoon sweetener
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Dash rum or rum extract (optional)
Directions:
Blend until smooth and creamy.
Well the one time that I had leftover's I made a onepot chili stew.
That sounds good! I have a friend that always puts pumpkin puree in her chili, like a secret ingredient.
