Perhaps you aren't as twisted as the carver of this pumpkin - but this time of year always sends people to the fields in search of the perfect pumpkin for carving. Many people forget that pumpkin is a great food item - baked, roasted, mashed, sweetened for pie or bread. People staulk Starbucks or DD for pumpkin spiced lattes and the pumpkin ice cream limited edition goes on the market too. Here is an easy, low cost pumpkin treat you can eat as is with a spoon or used graham crackers, apples or celery as your utensil! ENJOY!

Pumpkin Dip

1 - 8oz package light or fat free cream cheese
1 cup plain, fat free yogurt (Dannon has a good one)

1/2 cup confectioners sugar or Splenda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
Fat free cool whip

Beat cream cheese, yogurt and pumpkin in large bowl until smooth.

Serve with graham crackers, apple slices or celery sticks!
