It's Pumpkin season again! If you don't like those crazy, sugary sweet pumpkin drinks then this recipe is for you. You can control all of the ingredients, the level of spice, the amount of pumpkin, what kind of milk and the sugar - or no sugar.
This is so easy to make and a wonderful treat to make right at home. Plus, it actually has ingredients that are good for you. Be sure to use canned pumpkin puree and not the sugar- laden canned pumpkin pie mix.
It turns out that pure pumpkin is loaded with vitamins, A, C & E as well as magnesium, iron and potassium and of course we can't forget about all of the beta carotene and fiber...awesome for your digestive tract.
The vitamins also help with your vision and your immune system. It helps to slow down sugar absorption which helps with weight while giving you lots of good nutrition.
The spices used in a pumpkin latte are warming and stimulating helping circulation and strengthening your immune system. They also help kill microbes and increase digestion.
Cinnamon is known to lower blood sugar and cholesterol while increasing healthy HDL while also supporting your immune system.
There is a reason we eat (and drink) for the season...foods in season prepare our body and organs for the season ahead and pumpkins pack so much healthy nutrition that we should celebrate and drink up!

Chocolate bark is so super easy to make and tastes delicious!
A chocolate Martini is the perfect Valentine's drink as it can double as dessert too! It's pretty easy to pull together with just a few items from the bar.
In this recipe I've included a little aphrodisiac boost with a healthy herb that works great with chocolate and is known for boosting the libido- Maca
Nothing screams "Game Night" like a sheet pan of loaded potato skins or loaded fries right? What if I told you that you could have that satisfaction, keep your New Year's resolutions and stay on the healthier side?
This recipe makes everybody happy. In my house we even make it as a quick one pan dinner that is super filling and very yummy. It is low carb, high fiber, high protein (if you use cheese and the yogurt dressing) and very filling and satisfying!
