Drinking to My Health

Because I am such a fan of the idea of food as medicine, and because I had an odd assortment of foods languishing in the fridge and needing to be used up, I just made myself the following little nutritional powerhouse:

Pumpkin-Apple Kefir Smoothie

1 cup kefir

1/2 cup pumpkin puree (which I had left over from making these dinner rolls)
1/2 cup apple butter (kindly given to me by one of my favorite patients ever)

Combine all ingredients in a blender till smooth.

Between the probiotics in the kefir, the beta carotene in the pumpkin, and the fact that an apple a day keeps the doctor away, I should be feeling better in no time!
