For the majority of Americans, it’s very difficult to eat healthy during the fall. Between pumpkin spice lattes, Halloween candy, and the inevitable Thanksgiving feast, people aren’t necessarily prioritizing salads or smoothies. While eating green salads, chia pudding, zoodles, and more may not be in the cards, starting the day with a green smoothie is very attainable.

To get in the fall spirit, this smoothie is appropriately titled “Green Monster Smoothie.” Why does it have the name it has? Well, the ingredients are ingredient titans, monsters if you will. The nutritional profile is incredibly diverse. The kale supplies the body with dietary fiber, magnesium, antioxidants, and vitamins A, C, and K. Strawberries enhance the antioxidant content of this smoothie and offer a high dose of vitamin C, which boosts immune function. Bananas are excellent sources of potassium and complex carbohydrates, and they help to thicken smoothies.

For the average person, the “questionable” ingredient is the cucumber. Aren’t cucumbers meant for salads? Yes, but they go great in homemade juices and smoothies as well. Cucumbers are naturally rich in water, helping to hydrate the body. Additionally, cucumbers contain a lot of potassium and vitamins A & K. Plus, they are quite refreshing. See for yourself when you drink this smoothie. We can’t promise anything, but you may feel an incredible burst of energy after drinking it.

Pumpkins don’t go out of style the minute halloween is over; we actually think they get more popular with the amazing winter squash varieties. If you plan on cooking with sweet baby pumpkins, don’t discard the seeds because you can clean them for roasting. You can make a pumpkin soup for dinner and have roasted pumpkin seeds as a healthy snack for the next day.

Feel like being Doctor Frankenstein and creating a monster? No? How about little monster toasts? This is a healthy appetizer idea that is fun for the kids and everyone who sees them.

Plus, you get to eat avocado, which is just the absolute best. You can double or quadruple the recipe to make these for a lot of people.

Maybe you’re having a Halloween party and you need to throw together a quick, easy, and healthy snack. Rather than doing the run-of-the-mill party snack like veggies and dip, get in the spooky spirit and have some fun. Make this dip look like a witch’s face. The only sad part is that it doesn’t look like a witch once people dig in.

This fun salad is a great, healthy little appetizer for a Halloween themed dinner. The oranges serve as bowls, jack-o-lanterns, and you get to eat the orange in the salad. The lovely citrus goes great with the sesame flavored dressing. You don’t have to go all Michelangelo on the carving. A few triangles and some mouth-looking shape will do the job, and will definitely be a highlight of the meal.

Note: peanuts are pictured, but they are hard on the digestive system so we swapped them for walnuts.
