Easy Pumpkin Muffins
I made 18 muffins instead of 12 for only 121 calories each! So yummy!
These easy low fat pumpkin muffins only have 2 ingredients!

Ingredients:

1 box spice cake mix
1 can solid pack pumpkin (15 oz.)

Directions:

In a large bowl, combine cake mix and pumpkin.

Note: Don't add anything else that may be mentioned on the box, such as eggs, oil, or water. The mixture will be VERY thick.
This is what it's supposed to look like. Do NOT add anything else, even though you might be tempted to do so.

Place batter into muffin tins lined with paper, or sprayed with non-stick spray. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.
Makes 12 muffins.

Per muffin:
181 calories, 3.5g fat, 37g carbs, 2g fiber, 2g protein

    Found this recipe posted by heathersmilz on Sat 05/28/11 10:03 PM. Sounds good.


    TOPIC: Pillsbury Apple Turnovers - 2 WW Points w/ PHOTO
    My husband loves all things involving baked apples and we were sitting around enjoying a lazy Saturday night together when he exclaims that he really wants a Saturday treat of apple turnovers. Of course, this thought unfortunately came at 10 pm, grocery stores are now closed. He actually came up with this idea based on items we had but I performed the execution and you know what? They were excellent! So fresh too compared to the gummy and dry store bought ones that are 300-500 calories each.

    1 canister of Pillsbury reduced fat crescent rolls
    3 Splenda 0-cal packets
    ½ tsp ground cinnamon
    1 granny smith apple, pealed and diced fine
    8 tbsp Great Value light whipped topping
    1 tsp Parkay margarine

    Points: 2 (makes 8)
    Nutrition: 114 cals, 226mg sodium, 16g carbs, 1, g fiber, 5g fat, 2 g protein,

    Directions: roll out and divide Pillsbury crescent dough, brush with melted margarine and sprinkle with cinnamon and 2 packets of sweetener. Top with diced apple pieces and roll into a crescent. Place completed crescents on a sprayed cookie sheet then sprinkle remaining sweetener packet and cinnamon. Bake at 375 degrees for 10 minutes until golden brown. Top with whipped topping and serve warm.

    Enjoy!

    * FYI, I actually put about 2 tbsp of whipped topping on each but for the sake of cals, 1 tbsp would be just as good. My whipped topping was also frozen hence why it looks more like ice cream in my photo.
