\"Pumpkin!
Pumpkin! by Janice Taylor, Weight Loss Artist<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

For whatever reason, probably because Our Lady of Weight Los<\/a>s encouraged me to do so, I researched the color \u201cPumpkin.\u201d\u00a0 As if I didn\u2019t know that the color pumpkin is orange!\u00a0 But whatever, she insisted, so I did what she asked, and glory be, I\u2019m glad I did.\u00a0 Interesting information about to follow!!!<\/p>\n

We all know that pumpkins are a vibrant orange; a color that symbolizes fall.\u00a0 But did you know that pumpkins come in other colors, too?\u00a0\u00a0 Pumpkin varieties come in shades of red, pink, green, tan, white and blue!<\/p>\n

And now I\u2019ve got you wondering; don\u2019t I?\u00a0 As to whether the pumpkins used in pumpkin pie (or pumpkin pudding, recipe to follow) are made of orange pumpkins?<\/p>\n

The answer:\u00a0 The pumpkins used to bake a pumpkin pie or to whip up a bowl of pumpkin pudding, or anything that uses pumpkins from cans for that matter, are not orange in color!\u00a0\u00a0 Canned pumpkins comes from pumpkins that are grown solely for processing; they are tan and oblong in shape, and look more like squash than your garden variety pumpkin patch pumpkin!<\/p>\n

Fascinating, yes? No?\u00a0 Either way, here follows a fabulously delish, 5 yum pumpkin pudding for your autumn pleasure!<\/p>\n

Pleasingly Pious PUMPKIN PUDDING<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Ingredients:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

1 pkg. (5 1\/10 oz.) no-cook, sugar-free vanilla instant pudding
\n1 can (12 fl. oz.)\u00a0 Evaporated Lowfat 2% Milk
\n1 can (15 oz) 100% Pure Pumpkin
\n1+1\/2 teaspoons cinnamon
\n1\/2 teaspoon nutmeg
\n1\/2 teaspoon freshly grated ginger<\/p>\n

Fat free whipped topping (optional)<\/p>\n

Instructions:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

In a medium bowl, beat (with hand mixer, stick blender is always a good idea or\u2014if you are old school\u2014vigorously blend with hand power) the pudding mix and evaporated milk.\u00a0 Refrigerate for 5 minutes, till it gets its chill on.\u00a0 Then\u2026Add the pure 100% pumpkin from the can, the cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger; mix well.<\/p>\n

Spoon into dessert dishes. Refrigerate (again) for 10 or more minutes or until ready to serve.<\/p>\n

Enjoy!!!<\/p>\n
