    Pumpkin Cinnamon Crunch Smoothie Bowl - this easy and healthy breakfast smoothie is full of nutrients to get you through the entire morning

    I want to talk a little bit about breakfast. The fact that I used to skip it. Every damn day.

    I used to wake up at 5am, drink a mug of coffee. Get ready for work. Proceed to drink another cup of coffee on the way into work and for the first hour while I was there. Finally around 10 or so, I'd go to the break room and grab myself a yogurt and granola. 10am!

    That's a whole 5 hours since I'd been awake. And it wasn't just 5 hours I was going without eating - it was 5 hours plus however many hours it had been since dinner the night before - probably about 10 on average. So I was going a whole 15 hours without feeding my body!

    When you put it that way, it sounds pretty asinine, right?

    The problem is though, 31 million Americans skip breakfast every day!

    I know I don't do that adulting thing all that well unless I eat a good breakfast before I get started on my to-do list.

    Especially because after a couple cups of coffee without any food, I tend to get the jitters. And well, jitters aren't good for my concentration or productivity.

    PUMPKIN FOR BREAKFAST!

    I sure do love smoothies first thing in the morning, but what I love more is a smoothie bowl. For two reasons.

    One. I feel like I actually get to eat something instead of drink it.

    Two. It's like a smoothie PLUS. You get toppings. And crunch. And chewing. It's so hearty and healthy and delicious all at once, and I really can't complain there now can I?

    Author: Cindy

    Ingredients

    • 1 16- ounce can pure pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
    • 4 ounces Silk Almond Milk
    • 8 ounces container of pumpkin flavored Noosa yogurt (or other pumpkin-flavored yogurt of your choice)
    • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
    • ¼ cup oatmeal
    • 1 teaspoon ground flax seed
    • 1 teaspoon chia seeds
    • 2 Tablespoons sunflower seeds
    • 2 cups ice
    • For Topping:
    • kashi cereal (I used the cinnamon crunch cereal)
    • slivered almonds
    • chopped pecans
    • ground cinnamon

    Instructions

    • Blend all ingredients together in a high speed blender except for the toppings.
    • To ensure a thick smoothie that will be good for eating with a spoon, use quite a bit of ice. You can put your smoothie in the freezer for 20-30 minutes before serving to solidify even more.
    • Pour into a shallow bowl and top with desired amounts of Kashi cereal, almonds, pecans, and cinnamon. You could also use sunflower seeds, raisins, flax, chia, etc.

        Yeah, I think it's a mindset or something. If I'm eating something instead of drinking it, I tend to feel more full. Plus all the crunchy toppings make it deliciously yummy!

        I can't wait to try some of the other Noosa flavors! Of course, I couldn't NOT start with pumpkin 🙂
