Pumpkin Pie Protein Shake


Pumpkin Pie Protein Shake

One thing about me: I will never turn down pumpkin pie. I don't care how full I am. I don't care what time of year (or day) it is. I will eat it. I've also been trying to increase my daily protein intake, so when I decided to try to create an easy, quick protein shake that tasted like pumpkin pie, and it actually worked, I was beyond excited. 

This pumpkin pie shake not only tastes delicious, it contains 20g of protein! If you leave off the whipped cream, it is also completely vegan/plant-based. Did I mention it takes 2-3 minutes to make? Scroll down for recipe!

Pumpkin Pie Protein Shake

INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
2 scoops Pumpkin Spice Naked Shake vegan protein powder
1 cup almond or oat milk
1 tablespoon almond butter
1/2 tablespoon maple syrup 
6-8 ice cubes
whipped cream (optional)
cinnamon (optional)
 
Combine all ingredients in a blender. I like to drink it as it in the morning, but if you're looking for more of a dessert type beverage, top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon.

I use Pumpkin Spice Naked Shake vegan protein powder for this recipe because it's both delicious and full of protein - 20g of pea protein to be exact. It also contains MCT oil, cinnamon, fermented cane sugar, and natural plant-based flavors, with only 3g of sugar. It's a seasonal flavor, so make sure to grab some before it's sold out!

DIY Halloween Mini Pizzas


Halloween Themed Mini Veggie Pizzas
   
Halloween is over a month away, but it seems like these days it starts in August. I'm more of a summer girl, so I don't get in the Halloween spirit until October 1st, but I'm also a planner. And since I forsee making these adorable halloween mini pizzas with my kids several times this Halloween season, I thought I'd go ahead and share them now.

Halloween Themed Mini Veggie Pizzas

Halloween DIY Mini Pizzas
Serves 6

INGREDIENTS 
6 english muffins, halved
3 cups shredded cheese (cheddar and mozzarella)
1 slice provolone or mozzarella
1 cup pizza sauce (the plain old jar kind works just fine)
black olives
green olives
green pepper
pepperoni or veggie pepperoni pieces  


Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Placed halved english muffins cut side up on a baking sheet. Cover with pizza sauce. On 5 muffins, top with shredded cheese. On the remaining muffin, top with strips of the cheese slice, to look like a mummy. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until cheese is melted. Use olives, green pepper slices, and pepperoni pieces to create jack-o-lanterns, spiders, mummies, and monsters!

Vanilla + Maple Collagen Iced Coffee


Vanilla + Maple Collagen Iced Coffee

Iced coffees are my best friend this time of year. I love going to get them as a treat, but I'm also a big fan of making them at home because I can make healthier (and frankly, much less expensive) versions that are just as delicious. My go-to lately has been this vanilla + maple collagen-boosted variety. It's simple, tasty, and includes collagen with all of its benefits!

INGREDIENTS

8 oz brewed coffee  
1 scoop Naked Collagen
2 oz almond milk, oat milk, or raw milk
2 TB maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla extract
ice

Mix all ingredients except ice together with a hand frother (or in a shaker). Add ice to a glass, and pour prepared coffee over ice.

I've been adding collagen to my coffee for a while now due to its many benefits (you can read more about what collagen does for skin, hair, nails, and joints here), and Naked Collagen is my favorite for many reasons. It's source from pasture-raised cows, is free of additives and artificial sweeteners, is odorless and tasteless, and is highly soluble. It's great in hot coffee too!


If you try this iced coffee recipe, let me know what you think!
