New way to enjoy greek yogurt
Had a new treat tonight with my greek yogurt and had to share... usually when I do these mix-in's I'm not measuring anything, so add the ingredients to your liking...
Pumpkin Cheesecake Greek Yogurt
1/2 - 3/4 cup plain greek yogurt
a couple largish dollops of canned pumpkin
about 1 tbsp. sugar free/fat free cheesecake pudding mix
sweetener to taste (I like Truvia)
a sprinkle of nutmeg & cinnamon...
Stir well and enjoy :)

Mmmm, that sounds really good. I better add Greek yogurt to the grocery list for tomorrow. I have some pumpkin that I bought last week. I made some muffins with some of it. I know, I know, the carbs. I really wanted pumpkin muffins, though. But I have some pumpkin left over and do not plan to make more muffins so this would be a great thing to do with it.

Kelly,
My brother and his gf recently told me about some excellent pumpkin muffins they made from the Paleo diet. This is a low carb version!! The recipe calls for the use of Almond Flour instead of White Flour.
I found this info on the web about Almond Flour ...carb content:
Flours have the following carb counts for 100g:
Wheat flour, whole grain___72.57
Almond flour____________19.74
Soy flour_______________30.38
Almond flour is also known as almond meal, or ground almonds.
I havent tried the receipe yet but thought Id share the information on reduced carb muffins! The Paleo diet is based on a gluten free diet, which generally means carbs.

I whip up a large batch of the stuff and keep in in the fridge during this time of year. I mix a 16 oz. container Greek yogurt, one can (14-16 oz?) pumpkin, one box SF cheesecake pudding mix and 1t pumpkin pie spice. Love, love, love it w/ Kashi Go Lean, Craklin Oat Bran, granola, etc. mixed in. Mmmmm...
