There is so many reasons why I love the fall…the beautiful leaves, chilly weather (perfect for running and getting my workout on outside), fun fall clothing (especially boots & scarves) and most importantly all the delicious pumpkin food and drinks!!!  I love all things pumpkin, instead of indulging in some sinful desert that will leave me feeling guilty and bloated (damn I wish sugar was good for you), I turn my boring ol’ protein shake into a yummy fall treat.

Pumpkin Protein Shake

Recipe

8-10 ice cubes

Vanilla protein powder (I use About Time protein powder)

3 tbsp Pure Pumpkin puree

1/4 tsp cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice

1 cup water

Blend and Enjoy!!
