Pumpkin Shake Recipe inside - Page 4

Thanks for the recipe! I'm trying it tonight!

ChristiG · 08-18-2009, 01:19 PM

this does sound awesome. i think i will try it with some vanilla protein powder and a lil bit of natural peanut butter. i started thinkin about the chocolate walden farms syrup in my fridge too, but i think a vanilla peanut butter chocolate pumpkin shake might be a little much. i actually bought a can of pumpkin at the grocery last weekend with the intention of getting on here and finding something to do with it since i had no plans but punpkin sounded good. this appears to be tried and true.

That sounds great! I love pumpkin. Thanks for sharing.

WomanOfGod · 11-08-2009, 07:42 PM

will be trying this this week!

fireflyfaster · 11-23-2009, 11:04 AM

Just made this shake -- it REALLY hit the spot for my pumpkin pie craving.

SugarPop · 11-24-2009, 06:43 AM

I'm drinking my shake now.......Used the original poster's recipe but couldn't find my flax, so used one TBS of psyllium husks instead. Tasty and filling.

Delicious!!! I had made a recipe of Jodie's Pumpkin Bake last week, but I added flax to it. The recipe is wonderful by itself without flax BTW. I didn't love the taste, so I froze it last night in snack size 1/2 servings. I got the idea to use it in this shake! Fabulous!!!! I used:

1 tbsp. heavy cream
2 tbsp. coconut milk
8oz. water
1/2 tsp. xanthum gum
1 scoop EAS whey protein( chocolate flavor)
1/2 serving Jodie's Pumpkin Bake(frozen)

Blend all ingredients except frozen pumpkin.
Add pumpkin, puls on ice crush until desired consistency.
My shake had a couple little chunks of Pumpkin Bake in it! Yummo!
Thanks for the inspiration!

debkeversole · 03-24-2010, 04:51 PM

yummo! 10 more days and i am making these!!

laranda · 08-14-2010, 03:51 PM

I couldn't find pumpkin

So...I bought a butternut squash and hope it will make a good sub.
I'm going to butcher it later

So if anyone thinks its a bad idea speak now, and i'll throw that squash into a soup or something

I find plain pumpkin in the can where the other pie fillings are. Be sure to get plain pumpkin and not pie filling because the latter is sweetened.

Its hard to find these days. Pumpkin Shortage. Haven't seen any since the holidays. Should see some again as the holidays get closer. I plan to stock up.

LoCarbLita · 08-14-2010, 07:08 PM

<3 pumpkin, I need to try this out!

I bought a bunch of cans last year when I heard about the impending pumpkin shortage and I still have most of them left.

I wonder, what's the shelf life of canned pumpkin?

Saw Halloween costumes and decor in the stores at the mall yesterday. Sigh. So now we'll be deluged with holiday promotions through the end of the year. By the time an actual holiday rolls around anymore, I'm sick of it.

Pumpkin shakes and Jody's Pumpkin Bake, those are a different story. Let the squash season begin!

24Fan · 08-23-2010, 11:07 AM

this really hit the spot today! I was looking for a way to use up some leftover canned pumpkin I had in frig.

FF, Jody's Pumpkin Bake is my favorite pumpkin recipe since I started LC'bing

I skipped the flax addition also for this shake. and I used some water with just a dash of 1/2 and 1/2.

Ok, I'm done editing now lol

Nikki2777 · 09-16-2010, 01:29 AM

This is simply wonderful and delicious!

Thanks for the recipe and some great tips. Freezing the HWC in a silicone mini muffin pan worked out wonderfully. Also, freezing the pumpkin in clumps.

Great thread.

24Fan · 09-16-2010, 01:55 AM

I love pumpkin so much but it does bring on cravings for me. I'm kind of glad it's difficult to find this year (again). Once warm weather starts I want pumpkin pie!

This shake is a much healthier alternative though

I bought a lot of cans of Libby's canned pumpkin last year. Each can had a "best used by" date stamped on the bottom. Your cans should have a date on them somewhere, too.

When I put it in my pantry I arranged the cans with the ones that expired first near the front. I've used about half of what I bought. I have 13 cans left on the shelf and the first one in line has on it "Best used by May 20, 2011." So I'd guess that the shelf life is at least two years. And most canned goods are still good a year or more after the date printed on the can as long as they're kept in a fairly cool place.

Nikki2777 · 09-16-2010, 03:48 AM

I forgot to mention this in my earlier post.

I followed the recipe (as outlined by bobo36us) except that instead of an egg I used Egg Beaters and added ground cinnamon.

Just wonderful and delicious.

Good news ... because I have plenty left and in about 36 hours it's time to Let The Pumpkin Season Begin!

smileyface · 09-29-2010, 06:32 AM

Looks like it's time to buy more pumpkin. I had almost forgotten about the pumpkin shake. It is delicious !! Looking forward to fall. I love making soups in the colder months.

vli1127 · 10-03-2010, 10:44 AM

Since squash is in season, I have used it in place of pumpkin. Tastes pretty good.

LoCarbLita · 10-03-2010, 05:11 PM

FYI: The canned pumpkins are back in stock @ Trader Joes! :]

Carolis60 · 07-28-2011, 09:53 AM

I'm going to try the shake in a couple minutes. All these posts make it sound delicious.
Just finished my 4 mile walk.
