Real Pumpkin Smoothie

This year, my 4-year-old and I made several trips to the local pumpkin patch and got lots of our favorite pie pumpkins, which are kind of flat with off-white skin and bright orange inside. We first spotted them several years ago and were told they made great pie. Now, these are the only kind of pumpkin I use. They are so good that, after roasting them, my daughter will eat the hot pumpkin in a bowl right after I scoop it out, with nothing added.
