Once again, PUMPKIN SEASON IS HERE!! It's obvious how much I love pumpkin. I mean what's not to love! It can be used in savory and sweet recipes! Pumpkin soup, pumpkin muffins, pumpkin cookies, stuffed pumpkin, and pumpkin smoothies! Hopefully, I'll be sharing many pumpkin recipes with you this season. Meanwhile, you can just search for "pumpkin" in the search bar at the end of this page or the home page, and many recipes will pop up.

Don't let roasting the pumpkin stop you from doing this recipe! But if you're tight on time or just lazy (get yo ass off the couch!) then you can sub it with canned pumpkin (not pie filling) or pumpkin puree.

Pumpkin Smoothie Bowl!
