take your mix, add 1 can (i think 15 oz?) and one cup of water. Mix and bake as usual. This is an old Weight Watchers friendly recipe and is about 100 calories per serving, high in fiber and DELICIOUS. Make great cup cakes too.

Yum - pumpkin . . .
Thanks for posting this. I'm going to try it, as I am always looking for recipes without eggs - my son is allergic to them. Recipes with pumpkin always seem to turn out the best and as you said - very moist. 
Pumpkin pie
I was at the store the other day and they were baking pumpkin pies. It smelled sooo good. I've been dreaming about it ever since. If I make one I'll have to eat it by myself because no one else in the family likes them.
I love this time of year! It's cold outside, beef stew with corn muffins, football, pumpkin pie, the fireplace turned on. Just love it!
stuffed pumpkin
Anyone have a good recipe for stuffed pumpkin or anything that would go well with that type of menu? Stuck!
Thanks! I have one too for a pumpkin cheesecake.
I have tried many and this is the one my family begs me to bring for the holidays. It is the best! I use a little more cinnamon and nutmeg than recipe calls for.
INGREDIENTS:
2 8 oz. packages (16 oz. total) cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup pumpkin purée
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
2 large eggs
1 9-inch graham cracker pie crust
PREPARATION:
Combine cream cheese, pumpkin, sugar, vanilla, and spices; mix with a hand mixer at medium speed until well blended. Add eggs; mix until blended. Pour into graham cracker crust. Bake at 350° F for 35 to 45 minutes, or until set. Cool. Refrigerate at least 3 hours, or overnight.
Serve with whipped topping.
This recipe is not over the top sweet so the whipped topping really compliments it perfectly.
You have to try it!

Pumpkin disappoinment
...Know how you feel. I too got very excited and committed this year to doing an organic garden. I had my husband make me three raised beds, bought tons of organic soil, organic seeds for pumpkins, squashes, cucumbers, tomatoes, carrots, you name it. I first read all the how to books on organic gardening. Everything was coming up beautifully - thick green vines for the pumpkins. Then in a flash, everything kind of shirveled up, got weird looking, and I wanted to cry. Turns out after much research on the net I find I had a destructive bug that infected all the squashes and pumpkins with bacterial wilt. I tried to save everything, but looks like I will only have two to four pumpkins this first year. What did I learn? I neglected to look up all the things that could go wrong - infectious virus, animals, bugs, sudden hot temperature, all the stuff that was not in the books I had bought. Now I am better armed, and next year, I will be well prepared for what can go wrong. Oh, there is a book you can buy on Amazon.com called How to Grow Pumpkins, and that book has everything. Don't give up, keep trying for next year. I know what you mean about spending a fortune to buy pumpkins. I do the same thing each year and had hoped I could save myself some money.

Send me one of those. LOL I get pumpkin pie
only if I buy it. DH doesn't like it.
lol gotta have that pumpkin pie!
that's great that your niece is doing that. I'm sure everyone will tell her how perfect they are, even if they are terrible. lol My 10yo "made" the pies this year. I just supervised. I was quite surprised he wanted to help. He was hesitant on making the pie crust and kept wanting me to finish it for him but I stood ground and told him he couldn't possible mess it up and that I wouldn't have given him the option if I thought he would fail. He's very proud of the pies now that they are done. Even said he'd like to try the pumpkin this year! I dont' think he's ever had a bite of pumpkin before.
Pumpkin and apple pie

Would have a really good recipe for pumpkin spice latte?
o
I use Pumpkin Spice Torani syrup also purchased at (sm)
Cash N Carry - I have a pump on the bottle and put a couple of squirts in - I only like light flavored pumpkin - but you could adjust depending on your preference. I put it in the milk before heating otherwise it cools it down too quickly. Great - now you are making me crave one too!! :)
My pumpkins are gone! I planted 4 pumpkin seeds in March sm
which grew up really nice and started to grow out like vines - got pretty white flowers in them which means the pumpkins would be coming out in a few weeks.
I haven't checked up on them all week because we've had plenty of rain so I haven't had to water them. I go today with my big bucket of water and there was only dirt left with holes. They dug them up and ate EVERYTHING - the stalks, flowers, everything! I am really upset.
I have 3 boys - 2 little ones, and we live in the country. Every year I spend about 80.00 on pumpkins decorating our porch, land, etc with pumpkins. I though I'd be a little more economical and plant seeds in the spring which cost a dollar so that I could have nice, ripe pumpkins, as many as I wanted - for the fall.
I'm thinking rabbits got them. We have indoor cat/dog so it wasn't my animals. I'm not sure what to do next spring. I'm not giving up. How can I keep animals from getting to them like that???
I want to cry.......I've been going out into the field and watching them grow..they were my babies..
Lookin' for a savory dinner-in-a-pumpkin recipe or a sweet one like the other one

I've never posted a recipe here, but these pumpkin spice muffins are the best and are absolutely
I was told it is a Weight Watcher's recipte.
one box spice cake mix
one small can (not the large can) pumpkin mix
half cup water
I made them for dinner last night (and breakfast this morning too) and my very picky family absolutely loved them and how simple is that. Just mix the three together. I used a mini muffin pan. The are the most moist muffins I have ever had. Hope you enjoy and, again, they aren't too bad for you either.

6 pumpkin pies, 2 vinegar pies and a chocolate chiffon pie sm
So now that I have caught your attention...just what is a vinegar pie, you ask.
In the south, they are referred to as transparent pie. You will sometimes hear it called sweet and sour pie. It is good real cider vinegar, the kind with the mother at the bottom, brown sugar, white sugar, butter and eggs, a bit of flour. It is like water when you put in the shell. You bake it for an hour and it comes out about like the goo in a pecan pie with no nuts. It is not sour a bit, nor is it sickly sweet. It is sweet with a bit of an apple bite. The kids love it and when younger son is home for the holidays, he will devour one of them at a sitting. He literally comes in and sees the vinegar pie, takes one and says: So...what is everyone else having? The other son won't eat pumpkin or vinegar, so he has the chocolate chiffon. The rest of us are pumpkin eaters.
How about a really filling appetizer like s/m
artichoke dip or a 7-layer dip, both real easy and inexpensive.
thanks for filling in the blanks
I watched a little bit and probably I am good for most of the above, but I have already "quit" a couple of addictions over my life. But I am glad you were so inspired to change your life and wish you best of luck!

DIRECTIONS
Dedge the raisins in 1 cup flour.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter and flour two 9 inch round pans.
Sift together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter or margarine and sugar; add egg yolks, and beat until smooth. Mix in flour mixture in parts alternately with milk. Stir in coconut, pecans, and raisins.
In a clean bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Fold into batter, and then pour batter into prepared pans.
Bake for 25 minutes, or until done. Cool layers on wire racks.
In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, water, flour, lemon and orange. Cook over medium heat until thickened. Stir in coconut and cook for 2 minutes. Allow to cool, and then ice cake. Alternate pecan halves and maraschino cherries halves around top of cake to form a pinwheel.
How about that temporary filling stuff?
I remember getting it back a few years ago OTC at a local pharmacy when I lost a filling and had EXTREME pain. I want to say DentTemp or something like that. It's sticky and kind of cement-like and may hold the cap onto the tooth. It had a little bit of that clove oil stuff mixed in to help numb any pain as well. Huge lifesaver since my dentist couldn't fit me in for what seemed like an eternity. Good luck!
I forgot to add some cherry pie filling to top it all off with that
but just even plain it looks good. Wish I had a microwave. I make a steamed chocolate cake in a pan called a turbo cooker. It's basically like a steamer. I add diet coke to it and it's like eating chocolate air. Mmmmmm
Savory or sweet? Do you want C.Ch. in the filling or in the dough? nm

HAHA... YEAH... I can just see our county jails filling up with (sm)
scores of pregnant women who (gasp!) CLOSED THEIR EYES during the *mandatory* video-viewing.
Anything canned
Paper products, plastic cups, utensils, toliet paper, diapers, pads, sunscreen, baby wipes for sponge baths, etc. There may be no way to wash dishes.
Water. Fill up your tub and all trash cans so you can flush your toliet.
Bleach... You can't have enough bleach
Brand name trash bags. Wet stuff is heavy.
Lotrimine or anti-fungal cream.. walking in wet stuff..
Soda. They give out ice eventually. Everyone ends up with more ice and water bottles than they know what to do with. Soda is great if the smell of mold makes you sick.
Drink mixes, if you get MREs they all don't come with kool-aid LOL.
Canned fruit, cups of fruit, applesauces, granola bars, chips, cookies, cereal, anything from the processed cereal and snack areas! Granola mix is great!!!! Crakcers and pb are filling too.
Canned meat like tuna and chicken.
Fresh fruit until it goes bad.
Cleaning supplies, with no power the mold gets really bad.
Fabreeze or something to spray your gross clothing with!
ENTERTAINMENT. There is so much waiting.
Canned Food
Have you tried him on mostly canned food rather than dry? Wet is better for cats than dry, particularly CRF cats.
What to do with canned tomatos
I have bought canned tomatos for something which didn't work out. Any ideas so they don't go to waste (p.s. - we don't eat beef). They are S&W tomatoes with italian seasoning. Would it just be too bland to serve them over some cooked pasta? I'm not the most creative cooks and have been known to burn water. HA HA
Don't buy the canned ones. They are gross.
Last year we bought a bag of potatoes, and didn't use them before they started to sprout. Then I baked all of them and froze them in freezer bags. Took one out of freezer and thawed in microwave when we wanted one. Delicious. I just put butter on mine.
canned air not bad for environment today...
Fluoroethanes don't have chlorine atoms. This means they aren't CFCs, and thus they do not deplete the ozone layer. No offense, but unless you have information these dusters contain chlorofluoroethanes (not likely as these have been phased out for quite some time now) or that fluoroethanes are proven to have some other harmful effects, you really need to think before spreading misinformation. By spreading this misinformation, you are giving (knowledgeable) environmentalists a bad name.
Canned meat - the spinach of Dog

Canned tomatoes are very versatile
Not bad with cubed tofu, either. Also, what about vegetarian lasagna, eggplant parmesan, vegetable soup. More recipes are here, some vegetarian, but you can always substitute ground turkey or leave out the beef.

Mac n Cheese with canned tuna
I know it sounds gross, but it is totally awesome!
Also, a great next day meal for left over pork chops: Pork Fried Rice (my way lol)
Cut the pork chops up in pieces. Cook enough rice for however many are eating, and then in a skillet put a little bit of oil and cook a couple of eggs (I do one per person). Scramble them up and then take them out and set them apart in a bowl. Add a little more oil to the skillet, and throw in the rice. Stir it around for a few minutes, and then add salt and pepper, some terriyaki sauce, and half a bag of frozen mixed veggies (green beans, corn, and carrots). Stir this around until the veggies are thawed but still a little crisp. Add the egg back in and stir it all up. If you have sesame seeds throw those in.
Oh and don't forget to put the pork back in!
That's one of my hubby's faves that I make.
Yes, canned food is very good for cats SM
I give my 3 cats one can a day. It has water in it, so it keeps them well-hydrated. My cats love the new Meow Mix wet food. They have been eating it for a year without any problems at all.
Actually it is answering the one who said should be canned, creating hostile
work place- yours was not a good working situation also. I think people, unless in your situation, just do not realize what a problem others have. It is not something you try to do by making so many trips to the bathroom. People working for others sometimes just have to suck up things and as my mother would have said, consider the source- if you are rude, crude, inconsiderate, lacking manners- a person fits this category and you just take with a grain of salt and overlook others like this.
Love canned tomatoes!. Here are some ideas.
Put some frozen bean and cheese burritos in cassarole, pour tomatoes (doesnt matter if they are any flavor or not) over them, add cheese on top and bake at 350 til hot and cheese melted and brown. Or mix with chicken broth, chicken, cumin, pepper flakes (optional), other fave spices and make mexican chicken soup. Top with strips of toasted tortillas. Cook shredded chicken in tomatoes with fave mexican spices and serve on tortillas for mexican chicken rolls. Again, doesnt matter if called Italian tomatoes, will work with anything.
Looks like someone needs to get a life. The canned creamed soups from Campbell
are delicious, healthy (if you use Healthy Choice), and makes endless recipes WITH chicken breasts, fresh veggies, etc. You'd never be invited to our home because we use A LOT of canned stuff! Merry Christmas!
I was lucky - I had some canned Nutro Max but my kitty didn't like it, (sm)
which is unusual for her. Usually she'll eat just about any kind of canned food. When I read about the recall, I had 3 cans of it and I tossed it out. But FIRST, I wrote "RECALLED" on the can in Marks-A-Lot, just in case any dumpster-divers got hold of it and wanted to feed it to their cat. So for now we're sticking to Friskies & Fancy Feast wet, and Royal Canin dry cat food.
Any recipe ideas that can use canned tuna and rice?
I'm scraping the bottom of my pantry barrel so to speak. I just found canned tuna that I forgot I had and a box of instant brown rice. Any ideas on combining those two?
Thanks.
Is it safe to drink unopened canned items
That have been refrigerated for a couple weeks. Found a can of pineapple juice my husband put in the refrigerator a couple weeks ago, but didn't open. I know it's not safe to put open cans in the refrigerator, not sure about something that has not been opened yet.
I've used canned tomatoes in tossed salad in the wintertime...
because I can't stand the plastic tomatoes they sell out of season in the store. I also use them in tuna salad, chicken salad, etc. In summer, we grow our own, but for winter the canned ones are great, especially the petite-diced.
