0.42g
1 tbsp honey
20g

Instructions:

1. Mix the Pumpkin and Cottage Cheese: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the lowfat cottage cheese and canned pumpkin. Stir until well blended and smooth.

- Ensure the canned pumpkin is pure pumpkin and not pumpkin pie filling, which contains added sugars and spices.

- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less honey according to your taste.

- You can add a handful of nuts or seeds for additional texture and nutritional value.
