Add this smoothie to the weird-but-good list. Perfect for a quick breakfast or filling snack, this pumpkin-packed treat is full of vitamin A and fiber—it also happens to be dairy-free, which is especially great when you’re fighting off that autumnal “thing that’s going around.” Unless, of course, dairy doesn’t bug you when you’ve got a cold, in which case, feel free to sub the almond milk for cow’s milk, kefir, or yogurt.
I like to add raw oats to my smoothies for a little extra chewy texture and eat it like a bowl of, well, oatmeal. However, this would also be great enjoyed in your prettiest glass, topped off with a little whipped cream and cinnamon. Heck, it would even be good in a to-go cup. Enjoy!
