In a blender, blend well

1 banana

1 - 2 oranges

1 1/2 cup hot water

1 tablespoon virgin organic coconut oil

1 teaspoon to 1 tablespoon cinnamon (to taste)

stevia (to taste if desired)

3/4 cup old fashioned rolled oats

1/2 cup morning moo or powdered milk

2 large carrots

1 scoop protein

blend well

You can put half in another container for lunch or you can drink it all at once if you wish.

If you are going to drink it all at once, add ice (a little at a time, blending in between so you don't break your blender)  for the full drink add enough ice to make from 8 - 9 cups.  Blend until smooth.

If you are going to drink half now and the other half later, add ice to make 4 - 4 1/2 cups now  and the same when you drink the other half.

Butternut Squash Pie

Butternut Squash Pie

(Sorry, this one is not super cheap)



Wash squash.

Cut butternut squash in half and remove seeds.

Cut squash into about 2 inch chunks. (I leave the outer skin on and include it in the pie)

In a pot of boiling water, add the squash (about 9 cups of squash)

Allow the squash to boil until it is soft.

Drain off the water and mix the squash into a consistency similar to mashed potatoes. You may be able to use a blender, a mixer, or even a hand held old fashioned potato masher.

Put the squash mash into a large bowl.

Add:

12-16 eggs

3-4 tablespoons pumpkin pie spice

2 cans evaporated milk

2 cups maple syrup

mix well

Add mixture to pie shells

Bake at 350 for approximately 35 - 40 minutes or until you can put a butter knife in the pie and it comes out clean.
