Pumpkin Protein Smoothie

It’s Canadian Thanksgiving! Everyone loves Thanksgiving, with all of the pumpkin pie, mashed potatoes and stuffing! However, a weekend of hardcore carbo-loading can take its toll on your immune and digestive systems. We thought this smoothie recipe would be a great way to combine the Thanksgiving spirit with a post-Thanksgiving cleanse that starts on Tuesday!

You might be surprised by the use of tofu in our Pumpkin Protein Smoothie. We believe our tofu, which is 100% certified organic, gluten free and GMO free, is one of the best vegetarian protein sources available, so why not feature it in this great breakfast recipe?

Ingredients:

• 2 cups spinach
• 1 1/2 cups soy or almond milk
• 1/2 serving Sol Cuisine Firm Tofu
• 1/3 cup pumpkin
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• pinch of nutmeg
• 2 medjool dates pitted
• 1 banana
• 1/2 cup ice

Instructions:

1. Combine all ingredients in a blender & blend on high until smooth.

Makes 2 servings.

Happy Thanksgiving to all of our Canadian Sol Family!
