Pumpkin Cheesecake

SOTD: Pumpkin Cheesecake. Has to be one of my favorites.  Of course there isn't actually any Cheesecake to it. I have made this smoothie before, I added a few new things this time.
 Added: 2 T Chia seeds, 1 T honey, 2 T hemp seeds.  The Chia seeds REALLY gel up in this smoothie, I might not add them next time. Still, love the flavor of this smoothie.  Lately, I have had another fun addition to my smoothies, my 15 month old daughter has been enjoying sipping from mommy's smoothie:)  A good way to get extra nutrition into the kids.

Pumpkin Cheesecake
2 cups pureed pumpkin (homemade from last years jack-o-lanterns, mine is runnier than the stuff you get in a can)
1/2 cup honey greek yogurt
1 banana
2 T oatmeal
1T ground flax
1 T Wheat Germ
dash of cinnamon and nutmeg
Enough milk to make the 4 cup mark.

Add the main ingredients and blend. Then add the milk and pulse a couple times.
