I know it's no where near Halloween or Thanksgiving. I do know that Pumpkin puree and Cottage Cheese are two very healthy ingredients. I wanted to keep it light and refreshing tonight. I had a decent workout at the gym, yet it's just too packed like sardines in the winter months. Dislike. I ate pretty good during the day as well, but I still wanted to eat something for dinner. I should say that this delicious treat could also be wonderful for breakfast! It's like a kicked-up oatmeal. It's healthy and I can totally see it keeping you full for quite some time. Pumpkin should never be forgotten and it should be enjoyed throughout the year!
This could also be a great pre-workout snack! I have some leftover which I'm totally devouring at some point tomorrow.
Pumpkin and Cottage Cheese Puree
{Makes almost 2 cups}.
Ingredients
- 1 can of pumpkin puree
- About 3 tablespoons of Cottage Cheese. {I like Breakstone's}
- Dash of Nutmeg
- Dash of Cinnamon
- Maple syrup / Light breakfast syrup of your choice
- 1 tablespoon of Light Brown Sugar (this is what makes the dish).
- Puree and serve cold.
OK, maybe a touch more...
Doesn't look pretty yet. Get ready to puree!
Drizzle some reduced-sugar maple syrup in. I didn't have the real stuff though. Nothing wrong with some Aunt Jemima!
I only have a blender and a mini Cuisinart chopper/food processor. Use whatever you'd like. The consistency should just be a nice and decently smooth texture. Pretty color, too!
Make a pool of syrup. Nothing wrong with that!
I can't describe to you how tasty this is...
