Orange & Pumpkin Mean Fall to Me

Good morning, or afternoon, depending on where you are. Breakfast this morning was awesome! I made up a Pumpkin Souffle topped with a tablespoon of Coconut Butter and a swirl of Walden Farms Maple Syrup.

Low-Carb Pumpkin Souffle
1 scoop Cinnamon Roll Protein Powder (brand suggestions: BSN, All The Whey)
1/3 cup PumpkinĀ puree
1/3 cup Egg Whites
1/4 tsp Baking Powder
Pumpkin Spice & Cinnamon to taste
Stevia to taste
*Mix dry ingredients first then add in pumpkin and egg whites. For best results mix with a hand blender until well mixed. Pop into the microwave for 3 minutes. Pick your favorite topping depending on your nutrition needs (nut butters, maple syrup, dried fruit, etc)
So yummy. I couldn’t resist but pick up this cute seasonally colored Starbucks mug, which went perfect with my Pumpkin breakfast! I tried the White Chocolate SF Syrup this morning in Caramel Flavred Coffee.. not a great combo. So far the SF Peanut Butter is my fave, but I guess no surprise there!

It’s off to the gym for me. Working Biceps, Triceps & Chest, 45 minutes steady state cardio (haven’t decided what yet), then going to meet up with Mindy to learn the rest of my fitness routine! Reports later :) Have a wonderful Saturday everyone!

  1. That’s a yummy looking Fall breakfast!

  2. I used to make pumpkin souffle every morning in the office! I would blend it up in a Magic Bullet cup before I left for work and pop it in the micro when I was ready to eat it. People still talk about my crazy food creations…surely they were just jealous! ;-)

    Have you tried the same sort of thing w/chocolate protein powder? It tastes like cake….in an Easy Bake Oven sort of whey (I mean way).

      I hadn’t decided what to have for breakfast yet when I read this, so I decided to go for the chocolate version! The batter was amazing, but it lost a little flavor when I cooked it. Still moist & yummy tho!

    OMG! Why am I drooling? These 4 weeks better fly by so I can enjoy my pumpkin again and you better believe that souffle is on the hit list :)
