In large mixing bowl, cream together cream cheese and sweetener till smooth. Add eggs one at a time, then add vanilla extract. Add pumpkin puree and mix until smooth. May need to scrape bowl as needed. With mixer running add why protein powder, almond flour, baking powder, cinnamon and nutmeg. Mix until combined. Line 12 muffin cups with liners. Evenly spoon batter among them (the muffins I have are small so depending on your size muffin time you may get 6 large or like me 12 mini). Bake at 350F for 20-25 minutes

I use Zsweet but your sweetener of choice can be used I would just taste the batter to test the sweetness level. I get Almond Meal from Trader Joes.

It so easy and quick..
I salt and pepper some tilapia filets ( I usually add 2 extra to have for leftovers for a couple days)
I line a cookie sheet (w/ small lip) w/no stick foil
Broil for 8-10 minutes...
While that's broiling...
Put about 3-5 tbs olive oil. In sauté pan( heat a little)and add minced garlic, oregano,and A couple sprinkles bread crumbs
I then take fish out of the oven,spread the oregano mixture onto the filet
And put back under broiler for about 1-2minutes..
