Pumpkin Apple Spice Smoothie Bowl ~ Raw Food Recipe
Every year I dread the end of summer, but then fall comes and I think, “No, this is my favorite time of year!” Fall is apples, and pumpkins, and pea soup, and cider mills, and wineries, and music, and being cozy.
This smoothie bowl doesn’t contain any actual pumpkin, but will convince you otherwise!Instead, I’ve used carrots, which are always available. It will get your day started in a delicious way and give you plenty of energy to enjoy whatever these glorious fall days bring your way!
