Real Pumpkin Smoothie

This year, my 4-year-old and I made numerous excursions to the neighborhood pumpkin patch where we purchased a large number of our favorite pie pumpkins, which are flat with off-white skin and vibrant orange inside. When we first saw them a few years back, we were told they made excellent pie. These days, I solely use this variety of pumpkin. They are so delicious that once I scoop out the hot pumpkin after roasting it, my kid will eat it by itself in a bowl.
