Another pumpkin lover here. I can't wait to try some of these recipes soon! My recipe is for the ineer part of the pumpkin pie without the crust. Basically it is the recipe on the back of the pumpkin can, with a few variations.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees

Mix together in large bowl:
1 - 29oz can of pumpkin (or 2 15 oz cans) {280 cals}
2 cans fat free or skim evaporated milk {600 cals}
1 cup egg substitute such as Eggbeaters {120cals}
1 tsp salt
1 cup splenda {96 cals}
2 tsp pumpkin pie spice, or to taste.

Spray 13x9 pan with nonstick cooking spray
Pour mixture into pan

Bake 15 minutes at 425 gegrees
Reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake 40-50 minutes longer or until knife inserted into center comes out clean

Serves 12 for 91 calories per serving or can cut to serve 9 at 121 calories per serving
Top with 2 tablespoons Cool Whip Free and add 15 calories.

Pumkin pie with much less guilt.

So I was reading this thread yesterday and started craving all things pumpkin. I went to our local Kroger to pick up some cans and there was none on the shelf. At all. Not a single, dent can.

Maybe there was a display somewhere...

I found an employee over by the Halloween aisle and asked them where I could find some.

"Yeah, I think that's a seasonal item. I don't think we're selling it right now."

My eyes twitched over to the shelves filled with the brown and orange bags of Halloween candy.

Ah. Of course. Seasonal. How silly of me.

Sigh.

lol, I'm looking forward to autumn too (that's what us brits call fall) We don't eat much pumpkin here- just use them generally as halloween lanterns! But, this is changing and I for one plan to nom a lot of pumpkin this year.

Thai pumpkin soup- serves 6, 192 cals per portion.

1.5kg pumpkin- cubed, peeled and roasted
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 onion, chopped
1 thumb sized piece of fresh root ginger, chopped
1-2 stalks of lemongrass, bruised
3-4 tbsp thai red curry paste
1 400ml can reduced fat coconut milk
850ml vegetable stock (broth)
1 chopped fresh red chilli, to garnish
juice from 1/2 a big lime, or 1 whole small lime
2 tsp sugar
black pepper

Sautee the onion, ginger & garlic in a saucepan and then add the curry paste, stock, pumpkin & whizz with a hand blender (or put the lot into a blender then return to the pan).

Return to the heat, and simmer gently. Add the lemongrass stalks, lime juice, sugar & pepper and simmer for 10-15 mins to infuse. At the least minute, stir in the coconut milk and warm through. Serve sprinkled with chilli slices.

Pumpkin Butter??? Why have I never had this before....I will make it my mission to find some SOON!! Happy Tuesday everyone!

Look at www.skinnyrecipes.com
I will be making it tom, so I can't say how good it is but there is pumpkin butter and pumpkin pancakes!
PS-fall is my fav time of year as well.

I love that pumpkin butter recipe! I have some in my fridge right now. I decrease the brown sugar since I don't need it that sweet but the possibilities on what you can do with the pumpkin butter are endless!
