It's pumpkin season! The internet is buzzing in recipes, which have pumpkin as their main ingredient. Pies, cupcakes, soups, hot and cold drinks.. Today I share with you this simple smoothie recipe that I came up with at work.
As some of you know, I work at a juice and smoothie bar. Everything we make is freshly prepared in front of your eyes with high quality and organic products. The menu has a lot of varieties, for anyone's taste, but we were missing something new for the season. So we decided to experiment with pumpkin. After a couple of tries, we had a winner...Spooky Smoothie!

For a 16 oz smoothie you will need:

- 1cup of apple juice
- 1/2 frozen banana
- 1cup frozen pumpkin
- ginger

Add all the ingredients in a blender and mix until creamy. Sprinkle some cinnamon on top and Enjoy!

Crab meat recipe - #TastyTuesday

I have admit I do not cook very often. But I like trying new recipes now and then and I am usually very good at it. Modesty!

So we decided to buy some crab meat the other day at the market. I did my research online on some of my favorite cooking websites and I came across this one. I have to say it turned out really good even with my twist. It is a dish you could use to surprise your guests or treat yourself whenever you feel like. Try it yourself and let me know! Let's get to cooking...

You will need:

• 4 tablespoons of butter
• 1/2 an onion
• 3 tbsp flour
• 2 cups milk
• 2 cups crab meat
• 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
• 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese 
• 1/2 tbsp salt

1. Melt the butter in the skillet and add the onions. Cook until gold.

2. Add the flour and the milk stirring gently until the big clumps are completely gone.  Season with salt and any other herbs if you prefer. Let it cook for 10 mins in medium temperature.

3. Pour the whole mixture into the baking dish.

4. Sprinkle the breadcrumbs and Parmesan.

5. Put it in the oven and let it bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit until the breadcrumbs and the Parmesan are gold and brown. 

6. Pair it with some rice and you have a delicious meal.

Enjoy your #TastyTuesday
