We are moving into our new house in 11 days and in an effort to lighten our load I am using everything we’ve got in the refrigerator and freezer that I can. When I woke up Saturday I found a leftover baked sweet potato and decided to create a smoothie using it as the star ingredient. I love sweet potatoes- they are rich in vitamin C, beta-carotene and contrary to their name they do not cause blood sugar spikes.

Plus, sweet potatoes remind me of fall, thanksgiving and family. Food always takes me to a happy place- now, onto the recipe!

Sweet Potato Pie Smoothie

Makes 1 large or 2 regular sized smoothies

Directions: Put all ingredients in a high speed blender and run until smooth and creamy. Optional: Top with cinnamon.

This smoothie truly tastes like pie, will keep you full for hours and may just make you crave cozy sweaters and falling leaves. Happy almost autumn!
