Pumpkin Cream Cheese Latte Smoothie

What can I say, other than it’s fall so there is pumpkin this and pumpkin that everywhere.  I loved how my Pumpkin Cheesecake Smoothie turned out.  And, thought why not make a Pumpkin Cream Cheese Latte Smoothie.  This will be just as tasty with the added bonus of a burst of energy from the coffee.

Even though this smoothie has lots of flavor from all the scrumptious ingredients, I was able to keep the calories and fat down.  Not that calories or fat are a bad thing.  They both give energy to the body and keep the organs running smoothly.  Which is great.  

Especially now that the weather is getting colder, we really need our bodies working properly to stay healthy.  So, fuel your body with a tasty and healthy treat and try my Pumpkin Cream Cheese Latte Smoothie.
