    You can freeze canned pumpkin. I measure it out in 1/2 cups, put on a parchment paper-lined cookie sheet & freeze until solid. Then put the lumps of pumpkin in a freezer bag until needed. I've used the pumpkin in oatmeal for a different taste, with pumpkin pie spices - 6/3/11

    For the person that commented on using Greek yogurt instead of cottage cheese for less sodium - if you have Safeway Stores in your area, they have a no salt added cottage cheese that has only 45 mgs of sodium per serving. That's less than any Greek yogurt. - 11/19/10

    Made this tonight to have on hand to snack on: I love pumpkin and the first taste seemed not pumpkiny enough for me. So I doubled the pumpkin, added a little more spice, and added some honey as well--yum! It will go on my waffles tomorrow morning. - 12/14/10

    Love it! Love it! Love it! I used sweet potato puree instead of pumpkin because the market didn't have pumpkin at this time of the year! Just as good. Can't wait to try it with pumpkin in the fall. - 8/4/11

    Definately a keeper! I used 1 cup of fresh pumpkin puree and did not add the cottage cheese (& didn't have any greek yoghurt to substitute). 17 calories per serving & a lot less sodium and oh so delicious! - 1/30/11

    If you can only find the large cans of pumpkin, plan several recipes using pumpkin so the can will not go to waste. BTW this a a very yummy dip. It is a faculty lounge favorite with graham crackers or teddy grahams. - 12/14/10

    This was okay. Not sure why I expected something sweet but was disappointed at first taste. Not enough pumpkin so I doubled it and added a few packets of splenda. I would recommend as a spread for bagels, muffins but not as a dip as I wanted w/graham sticks. Better flavor after several hours. - 10/24/11

    I did some altering like some of the others suggested. I used half greek yogurt, doubled the pumpkin and spice. Took it to a youth group gathering with apple slices, carrots and graham crackers - they gobbled it up! - 11/5/11

    I served this with pita chips (Stacy's Naked) and thought it was an alright dip - nothing special and kind of bland. I would try to make it again with a little more pumpkin pie spice to see if adds more flavor, or maybe with a flavored cracker. - 10/21/11

    I make a lot of pumpkin rolls this time of year. I often have a hard time finding something to fix with any leftovers. I like the idea of freezing it. - 11/5/12

    This was really yummy. I recommend adding some brown sugar splenda or regular splenda in order to get that creamy pumpkin pie taste. Can't wait to serve at Thanksgiving! - 11/1/12

    I increased the pumpkin and added a tablespoon of agave syrup and a tablespoon of honey. I used the immersion blender and it whipped up great. Cubed a Granny Smith apple, mixed it in two tablespoons of dip and had a great snack. - 10/21/12

    I brought this to a Halloween party and served with fresh freggies that were suggested in the description (apples, carrots, celery, and also graham sticks and multigrain crackers). At the end of the night, everything was eaten except the dip was practically untouched. Potluck party fail. - 10/17/12
