I think I got it from the recipe section here.

1/2 c. pumpkin
1 T. butter
1 T. heavy cream
1 packet splenda
1/4 tsp pumpkin pie spice

(stir, microwave, stir, microwave...til smooth and heated..about 45 sec total for me).
Sure, you can have pumpkin for breakfast. I used to eat it almost every day! Yeah, the protein is pretty low in it... once I got to rung 3, I started tossing some natural almonds into it and that helped, but it is still fat-heavy. I never worried about it, as long as I made sure to have adequate protein the rest of the day.
