No Fall season is complete without a pumpkin smoothie. This flavorful banana pumpkin spice smoothie is it. It's pretty healthy if you eliminate the mound of whipped cream and caramel sauce. But why? We like to enjoy the season.

Pumpkin Smoothie with Frozen Bananas
I like to use frozen bananas in my smoothies or shakes. Keeping portioned out, sliced frozen bananas in the freezer is an easy way to make smoothies when I have limited time in the morning. One banana equals about one cup of frozen, sliced bananas. When the bananas are just ripe, I simply slice them up and place them in individual freezer bags and place them in the freezer. They are already portioned out and makes it easy to add them to any smoothie recipe.
