This looks like dessert to me! I haven't got any granola bars, but I'll be a sprinkle of nuts would work with less carbs.

Oooo...sounds yummy! I just bought some more greek yogurt today...high protein and the pumpkin counts as a veggie, right?

You should check with your nutritionist to see how your doc prefers starchy vegetables to be classified. Mine would say it's a starch, and he doesn't care what produced it. (grin) I'd serve this on a day where I knew I was definitely eating low carb the rest of the day, even with my substitutions. After all, 1/2 cup of canned pumpkin is a whopping 9 carbs all by itself. Still, for something as tasty as a dessert, it's not bad!
