Hi guys, I just made an amazing LC snack and had to share.

1/2 cup pumpkin
1/4 cup ricotta cheese
1 tsp honey
a bunch of pumpkin pie spice

OMG so good and so filling! It tastes JUST like pumpkin pie filling. I don't do artificial sweeteners so I just put a small amount of honey, but I'm sure splenda would be fine.

I honestly don't know why ricotta doesn't get more love in keto/LC communities. It's been a godsend to me when making food because it's so yummy and makes everything feel fancy.

Happy fall!

    That does sound good. I eat pumpkin puree by itself with little sweetener and spices. The ricotta would make it nice and creamy. Thanks!

    I love this recipe because it says "a bunch of pumpkin pie spice." And because it's pumpkiny and presumably creamy. Thanks so much for the idea!

    I'm hoping to try this recipe so some ricotta is on the grocery list. Thanks for sharing this recipe with us. Sounds good. :)

    Ricotta is practically a staple here. I use it for pasta-free spinach and portabella lasagna.

    I never think to buy ricotta but I might need to!

    Glad to see some more ricotta appreciation! A fav quick meal of mine is a few costco meatballs heated up with 1/4 cup ricotta cheese and 1/2 cup Rao's tomato sauce. So good!
