From Laura Dolson, your Guide to Low Carb Diets
I remember my sixth grade teacher reading us poems about fall - "The Frost is on the Pumpkin" and "October's Bright Blue Weather". Well, both are happening where I live - we got our first frost this morning, and this afternoon's weather is warm and clear. Of course, pumpkins are everywhere - at the market, in people's yards, and at the schools. Happily, pumpkins are great friend for low-carbers because they are packed with nutrients, but the carbs are lower than many other squashes. I like to keep a few cans around all year long for quick soups. Have a lovely fall weekend! Laura

Pumpkin - Low in Carbs; Good for You
It's delicious, allowed on Atkins Induction, and can be used in everything from main dishes to deserts. Once you branch out with it, you'll realize pumpkin can be a year-round nutritious addition to your diet. Here's lots of nutrition information and links to recipes. See also this Carb Profile of Pumpkin, with links to low-carb recipes.

Low- Carb Pumpkin Pie
People have told me this was the best pumpkin pie they've even had, and they didn't know it was low-carb or sugar-free.

Pumpkin Roll with Cream Cheese Filling
This low-carb and gluten-free version of a traditional pumpkin roll (a rolled cake with a cream cheese filling) is a wonderful fall dessert.

How to Roast Pumpkin Seeds
The pumpkin carving ritual wouldn't be complete without the smells and crunching of roasted pumpkin seeds! This also works for any kind of squash seeds, including spaghetti squash.
