Warrior Princess Smoothie

This super yummy smoothie was developed at a recent Wind River retreat where 8 amazing women, (and 4 amazing hosts) shared a weekend in nature full of laughter, fun, food, and healing.  We had leftover butternut squash that had been roasted in the oven with nothing added, just  natural sweetness and goodness.  Any winter squash can be substituted or if you don't have leftovers, Trader Joes sells a bag of frozen cooked butternut squash or fresh butternut squash chunks that you can steam in the microwave.    Enjoy!
