A Fall Feeding Frenzy!

Yes, it's that time of year again!  Fall is here, and along with the shorter days and cooler weather comes the return of our favourite seasonal flavours!  For a sweet treat, pick up a Fall-inspired drink, like a cinnamon or pumpkin spice latte!  To keep the calories, fat, and sugar under control try ordering your drink the skinny way: stick to a small size with skim or soy milk, sugar-free flavour or half-sweet, and skip the whip!

Another way to kick off a crisp Fall day is with a comforting bowl of Pumpkin Oatmeal!  Enjoy this JCJ-tested recipe of the week! And remember, what you eat is what you wear!!

JCJ's Pumpkin Oatmeal

1/2 C quick oats
1/3 C pure pumpkin (canned raw pumpkin, not pie filling!)
1 scoop vanilla (or unflavoured) protein powder
Dash of pumpkin spice (or some cinnamon and nutmeg if you don't have the blended spice)
1/2 oz chopped walnuts (*optional)
1/8 C (about a handful) unsweetened raisins (*optional)

Combine all ingredients in a bowl.  Add about 1/3-1/2 C water and mix until ingredients are wet and you have a bit of excess water.  MIcrowave covered for 45 seconds.  Stir.  If mixture seems thick or sticky add a bit more water.  Return to microwave for another 30 seconds.  Give a final stir, and add a touch of skim milk for an extra creamy texture!

I tried this with Unsweetened Almond milk in place of water and it was very tasty and filling!
