Cortelli yes it has chunks of yummy delicious pie crust chunks mixed through. I tried the caramel apple pie that was actually a little too sweet for me. But I'm going to try again cause well can't form an opinion on just one try.
Ahhh oh gosh. Well it's only 200 calories a serving, might have to buy it anyway...
220 per serving and worth every single calorie if you like pumpkin pie
What if I like other pumpkin things but not pumpkin pie... ? Husband likes pumpkin pie but not other pumpkin things. I think we should get it, one or the other of us should be happy, which is pretty much how we've survived the last 13 years of marriage...
It's our anniversary today and I'm cranky because he's out of town...0 -

I picked that Jello Pumpkin Cheesecake and came across Pumpkin Pie Yoplait Light yogurt. Excited to try both!
The Jell-O was good!
the Yoplait pumpkin cheesecake greek yogurt is my new favorite yogurt flavor. i hate runny yogurt, and for a greek yogurt it is not as thick as expected. it's not runny, but also not quite as thick as i would like. but it tastes so good i can't resist! I am headed to the grocery store to get more right now.
I also tried Chobani's limited edition pumpkin flavor. it was ok, but i definitely prefer the Yoplait.
I am not a clean eater by any stretch, but I thought Chobani tasted very fake. I'll have to try the Yoplait the next time I go shopping.
Have you tried the Pumpkin Noosa (only sold at Target) it's yummy!
Yes, the Noosa is gooooood too!0 -
Day 1: carrot cake
Day 2: carrot cake and candy corn
Day 3: pumpkin salted caramel
Day 4: cinnamon roll, Trader Joe's pumpkin Jo-Jos with cookie butter
Day 5: Pumpkin coffee cake, which was actually really good. Very mild pumpkin flavor.
Day 6: Russell Stover pumpkin: caramel marshmallow and S'mores candy corn
Both were good. I don't taste anything but marshmallow in the s'mores candy corn, but it's good anyway. I think I still prefer the original. I'm pretty sure candy corn is one of those flavors that's mostly about nostalgia. The Russell Stovers candy was good. Nothing phenomenal or new, but good.

Sorry Guys! I JUST found out about/joined this group like 4 minutes ago! So I'm late to the bandwagon, but I'm looking through my Food Diary now...
Day One: Homemade "Pumpkin Pie Waffle" with topped with Pepitas & grade A Maple Syrup. (This was definitely my kids favorite meal so far this Fall)
Day Two: Homemade Apple Pumpkin Banana Blueberry Protein Muffins with Streusel. (Again, another family favorite on busy school days)
Day Three: I made Pumpkin Farina (Cream of Wheat) with Vanilla Flaxseed Milk, Dried Cranberries, Pepitas & Walnuts with Brown Sugar.
Day Four: Dark Chocolate Hot Cocoa with Marshmallows and 4 ounces of Pumpkin Noosa with 1/4 cup of Libby's Pumpkin Puree stirred in and a dash of Pumpkin Pie Spice.
Day Five: Sweet Potato Fries at dinner. Hot Cocoa Ice Cream at dessert.
Day Six: (today) I had a late afternoon snack of Pumpkin Coffee with Pumpkin Spice creamer and 2 Pumpkin Spice Creme Oreos.
I adore all Autumn related recipes. I'll be making Maple Pumpkin Walnut Fudge tonight.
Also, the homemade meals are viewable on my Instagram (@MerMadeInTheShade) only because I can't get Photobucket to cooperate enough for me to stop crashing so I can post here, lol.0 -
Hello and welcome, MerMade :drinker:0

I want my crazy days to stop so I can cook and bake. My homemade cornbread didn't really scream "fall" to me. Those sugar pie pumpkins though... I will make some magic happen with them when the kids are off school Thursday and Friday. :bigsmile:0

Awww . . . Happy anniversary. You need some fall sweets (like maybe some pioneer woman Halloween bark!). You guys can celebrate when he's back in town.
I visited my local Lucky's and Safeway and no Pumpkin Pie Talenti but I went ahead and picked up some Caramel Apple Pie - a little spooked though since Jen thought it might be too sweet and I don't really have a sweet tooth! We'll see tonight or tomorrow.
Going to visit a Target and then a Safeway down south during / after work tomorrow (the MFPer who found it is 15 - 20 miles south of me and says he got his in a Safeway).
And since I am so late to this thread, can I just throw a few kudos to some of the treats posted in here -- OdesAngel's iced pumpkin coffee cake; Daiako's caramel apple spice cupcakes with a caramel . . . glaze (LMAO); and PurringMyrrh's apple fritters with cider?? OMG,
well done people! 0 -

So we've heard from Jen that it is marvelous -- what say you, Marvybells? Pumpkin pie is one of the desserts I enjoy so very curious about this gelato!0 -

Day 2: carrot cake and candy corn
Day 3: pumpkin salted caramel
Day 4: cinnamon roll, Trader Joe's pumpkin Jo-Jos with cookie butter
Day 5: Pumpkin coffee cake, which was actually really good. Very mild pumpkin flavor.
Day 6: Russell Stover pumpkin: caramel marshmallow and S'mores candy corn
Day 7: Lindt Caramel Brownie chocolate bar and Russell Stover chocolate marshmallow pumpkin
Both were really good. The Lindt was amazing and I can't wait to have more. It's a chocolate bar with little crunchy bits of brownie and caramel filling.
And I'm partial to chocolate marshmallows so no complaints there. I also made a fall themed dinner-- chicken thigh skillet with wild rice, carrots, potatoes, and mushrooms. It was fantastic but I scarfed it before thinking about taking a picture. It looked very fallish though.
For tomorrow I've made apple pecan bread and it looks/smells divine.0 -
Day 1: Maple bacon cookies
Day 2: Pumpkin Spice poptart, Talenti Salted Caramel & Rum
Day 3: Talenti Pumpkin Pie gelato - I loved this but I love almost anything pumpkin pie flavored, it had small bites of pie crust, now my husband gave it a 5/10 but only good choice he's made is marrying me
Day 4: All things food truck and wine - lost my phone with all my good food porn
Day 5: Talenti Sea salt caramel with Count Chocula on top
Day 6: Talenti Pumpkin Pie with cool whip
Day 7: Talenti Pumpkin Pie with cool whip

Amber that bar looks really good, now I'm going to have to check and see if I can find it around here0

I would probably eat the whole bar with how I've been lately, ugh!
I had some butternut squash soup again yesterday. I'm having an apple - does that count? lol0 -

Today I'm trying to make my own pumpkin pie ice cream. Hoping it comes out. Made my normal pie crust but added some cinnamon (yes I know MrM you don't like cinnamon) and brown sugar to the crust to give it just a little more flavor. It's churning now so I'll either have ice cream or a yummy pumpkin shake like thing. Here's what the base and crust look like so far

Well, I love cinnamon so I'll appreciate it for you.
Here's my apple pecan bread. It turned out awesome. Although full of cinnamon, because I always double the amount in the recipe.
I found that chocolate bar at Walgreen's, Jen.0 -
Nice I guess I'll be heading to Walgreen's this weekend. I double my cinnamon too. That bread YUM posting the recipe right???0

I got the recipe here: http://www.gonnawantseconds.com/2014/09/apple-bread-with-pecan-praline-glaze/
The only thing I changed was to double the cinnamon and add a pinch more nutmeg.0
