OK, I'll be very bad and add this recipe:
Pumpkin Pie Martinis
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice - divided
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 cups half and half - I use fat-free
4 tablespoons pumpkin puree
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup vanilla vodka
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the brown sugar, 1 teaspoon of the pumpkin pie spice, and the water. Stir until the sugar has dissolved. Heat to boiling. Remove from heat and cool completely. This is the syrup.
On a shallow plate, mix together the granulated sugar and the remaining teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice.
On another shallow plate, pour out 2 tablespoons of the syrup. Rim your martini glasses by dipping them into the syrup, then into the sugar mixture on the other plate.
In a pitcher, combine the half and half, pumpkin puree, vanilla, and vodka. Stir briskly with a whisk. Add the remaining syrup and whisk it again.
Shake with ice and serve in the rimmed glasses.
Eye-popping good! :drinker:0 -

High Protein, high fiber, low fat, pumpkin oatmeal bake. Can be made ahead for the week, or frozen. It is good warm or cold. Lots of options for substitutions or add-ins.

Really yummy if you use pumpkin pie spice or apple pie spice in place of cinnamon and nutmeg0 -
I love mixing 1 cup of cottage cheese with a half cup of pumpkin. Then you add a little splenda and some cinnamon and nutmeg (or pumpkin pie spice if you have it) It tastes like the filling from a pumpkin Pie.
Also if anyone is trying to watch carbs you can use a box of sugar free yellow cake mix with one can of pumpkin and a little pumpkin pie spice for a different variation of the muffins as well :-)
amazing! I totally have to try this! - I just bought the mini sized cottage cheese cups!0 -

I've never tried pumpkin before. They don't sell canned pumpkin in the supermarkets in the UK for some reason. Just found a website that sells it so will order some. Can't wait to try some of these recipes0

My wife makes a spicy pumpkin soup similar to this and it's great. It's filling and a great side dish or snack. It's only 69 calories per serving and it keeps me warm in the winter months.0

Pumpkin Pie Tarts!
Or as we like to call it in my house, "Pumpkin Pasties!"
A can of pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves are what make it so delicious.
Then just find a semi low calorie pie crust, and make them much smaller, say about 2-3 inches in diameter, and put a dollop of the pumpkin mix in, and bake!
I don't think they're too bad in calories, I'll come up with the math when we make them again though0 -
___________________
Crustless Pumpkin Pie
Recipe: Your favorite
Method: Either eat the pumpkin & discard the crust or baked in a water bath so it doesn't burn.
No whipped cream for me.
One good garnish baked internally is pecans.

A lady at work brought this in for Thanksgiving one year and I hounded her for two weeks until she gave me the recipe.
Pumpkin Crumble
http://www.myfitnesspal.com/recipe/edit/8515890
(in case that link doesn't work)
1 can (15 oz.) pumpkin
1 can (12oz) evaporated milk (lowfat is cool)
1 c. sugar
2 eggs
4 tsp. allspice or pumpkin pie spice
4 tsp. cinnamon
1 pkg. yellow cake mix
1 c. melted butter
1/2 c. chopped pecans or more if you like, cover the top
Combine pumpkin, milk, sugar, eggs, spices; mix well.
Pour into greased 9"x13" cake pan.
Sprinkle with dry cake mix.
Sprinkle with pecans.
Drizzle melted butter throughout top along with a little cinnamon.
Bake at 350 degrees for 40-50 minutes or until golden brown or if a knife comes out clean it's done.
Whipped cream would be a great addition.
I had to promise I'd never make it for work but I can let you all in on it.
Those protein bars look pretty tasty too. Thanks!0 -
