Pumpkin Pie Smoothie

To continue my "it is fall, so I will live on pumpkin flavored things" spree.

1/2 cup pumpkin puree (not pie filling!)
1 1/4 cup milk (I used 1%, whatever you have in the house works)
6oz plain greek yogurt (one of those single serving sized things) (if you are using regular plain yogurt, add more yogurt and less milk to get the same texture)
1-2 tbl wheat germ (this is your crust flavor. Plus vitamins/fiber)
1 tbl maple syrup (or honey, or agave or simple syrup in a pinch.  Granulated sugar/brown sugar is strange texturally in this.)
Pumpkin pie spice (or ginger/nutmeg/cinnamon/clove) to taste
If you are a supplements-in-smoothies type feel free to chuck some in there

Toss in the blender, pour into a cup, and run out the door with a delicious breakfast you can finish on your commute.
