Warm Pumpkin Protein Bowl

40g protein and 18g fiber. Tis the season! So ready!

Loving this complete blood sugar-friendly meal right now. Super similar to the sweet potato pro bowl but I added riced cauli for more volume without more starch. Kinda like oatmeal but oats + pumpkin or any carb/starch isn’t the best for my blood sugar when I test with my CGM. So I created this feel good recipe to have on repeat and reach those healthy goals all at once.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 - 1 1/2 c frozen riced cauli

  • 3/4 c canned pumpkin purée (1/2 c works if needing to have less carbs in your health journey)

  • 1/4 c milk of choice, used cashew

  • dash pink salt

  • 1-1 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice

  • 1 serving vanilla protein powder @thepeachiespoon.nutrition

  • 1 scoop collagen or more flavored pro to get to 30g

  • 1 T ground flaxseed or psyllium husk powder or whole flakes

  • 1-2 T nut butter of choice

  • 1/2 T pumpkin seeds

  • 1 T (sprinkle) of granola

    STEPS

  • Microwave: In a glass bowl add the milk, cauli, pumpkin, salt, and spice. Microwave 5-6 minutes. Remove and add protein and flax/husk. Stir well and add more milk if desired. Add healthy fat toppings and enjoy!

  • Stovetop: In a skillet or saucepan, add milk, cauli, pumpkin, salt, and spice. Cook over med heat until cauli is softened and cooked. Remove from heat and add protein and and flax/husk. Pour in a bowl and add healthy fat toppings.
