Light & delicious pumpkin spice pie...
A great lower calorie Thanksgiving desert...
Adapted from a friend's recipe. The original called for 1 cup of heavy cream and no milk. It also called for 1/8 cup maple syrup and no honey.

Adapted from a recipe in the Vegetarian Times, this is a great soup to celebrate the fresh flavours of spring artichokes and leeks.
HIgh-protein, high-fiber spice cake. This is an original variation on those Chickpea Chocolate Cakes I've seen -- I made one of those the first time I decided to try out a "bean cake" recipe, and I was shocked by how good it was! So when I got a craving for spice cake recently I decided to try improvising a recipe for one.
This cake turned out to be delicious, and incredibly light, moist and soft as well, -- I think the pinto beans give it a "buttery" flavor even though there's no butter. I've had success with chickpeas in cake before, and black beans or any white bean should work as well, but I'm using pinto beans from now on. Feel free to modify the recipe by replacing the pumpkin pie spice with another flavor (cocoa, coffee, etc.)
A rich, creamy roasted autumn vegetable soup filled with carrot, parsnip, sweet potato and onion!
Craving Pumpkin Pie? No problem! At only 144 calories per 7/8 cup serving, you can indulge. Sometimes I put 1/2C cottage cheese in this to boost the protein for a fun and fast lunch.
Delicious, moist, freezes well. Always a big hit. I've also substituted the Pumpkin with ripe bananas. I put 4. Also can add nuts.
These were a complete "sleeper" hit at school with the staff - moist and tender, but rich in flavour from the combined persimmon, banana and pumpkin butter I made as the base, they pair well with strong coffee or your favourite herbal tea. Adapted from http://small-eats.com/2013/12/11/pumpkin-p
