Holiday Pumpkin Parfait Recipe

Here is a recipe a friend gave me that she received from a Dietician who works with WLS patients. Sounds good for the Holidays. Ingredients: - 1 cup (255g) pumpkin puree - 1 package (1 oz, 28g) sugar-free instant vanilla pudding mix - 2 cups (475 ml) cold non-fat milk - 1 tsp cinnamon - 1 tsp allspice - 1/2 tsp vanilla extract - 6 TBSP (18g) nonfat whipped cream topping - 6 cinnamon sticks - 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg Directions: 1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, pudding mix, and milk. Add the cinnamon, allspice, and vanilla & mix well. 2. Evenly spoon the mixture into 6 parfait or martini glasses. Chill in the Frig. for about 30 minutes, until the mixture sets. 3. Place 1 TBSP (3g) whipped cream topping on top of each parfait. Garnish with 1 cinnamon stick and the nutmeg. Follow your Doctor's guidelines first but this is what was on the recipe: Gastric bypass: 2-4 weeks Lap-Band: 2-4 weeks BPD: 2-4 weeks Calories: 55.44 Protein: 3.28 g Carbohydrate: 9.43 g Total Fat: .87 g Sat Fat: .46 g Cholesterol: 1.63 mg Sodium: 99.91 mg Sugars: 5.41 g Fiber: 1.50 g

Great now I am having a sweet craving Thanks MIMI lol

Glad I could help Michelle. You can eat it. Its not that bad. Its supposed to HELP you to NOT eat the Pumpkin pie!!! Know what? We should complain to the board. There are not nearly as many cute Emoticons here as there are on the Main boards. Wassup wif dat?

We are not as special I guess dang it.......Meanies lol

Hey Mimi, i just had to run out and get this stuff to make this........i have been craving pumpkin pie all of oct..........so just let me say that THIS HAS DID THE TRICK!!!! I am on soft foods right now and i may have this for breakfast and lunch lol, you've made me addicted lol.............it is so creamy and it does taste like a pumpkin pie...........thanks .................vickie

Lol Vickie I haven't even tried it yet. My friend is having Lap Band the same day as me and she gave it to me. I will be on Full liquids after surgery. Does this count as full liquid? I would think that it does since pudding counts. I am guessing it tastes good? You have actually made it?

I just talked to my mom in law *****cently found out she is diabetic so this may be a good one for turkey day at their house hmmmmmmmmm.

I posted this on the Main Board and someone said that it was in OH mag. She made it last week and said it is AWESOME. It tastes like the guts of pumpkin pie. I would think diabetics could definately eat this. It is low sugar, low fat. Much better than eating pumpkin pie. Jane/Amy, I'll make this for next Thursday. Its the least I can do.

I am making it too for Turkey day lol. Hey by the way did u download the mesenger yet huh huh huh huh huh??? lol

I'm trying to open another IE but it is stuck. My puter is bout to explode I think!! Yer kinda bossy. lol
