Pumpkin Spice Greek Yogurt Parfait: Layer 1 cup plain Greek yogurt with 1/4 cup pumpkin puree spiced with cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg. Top with 1/4 cup chopped pecans and a drizzle of sugar-free maple syrup (for example Log Cabin sugar-free syrup).
Apple Pie Parfait: Layer diced apples cooked with cinnamon and a touch of nutmeg with plain Greek yogurt and chopped walnuts.
Apple Pie Yogurt Bark: Spread plain Greek yogurt on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Top with thinly sliced apples, a sprinkle of cinnamon, chopped walnuts, and a drizzle of natural almond butter. Freeze until solid, then break into pieces.
Pumpkin Spice Latte Smoothie: Blend unsweetened almond milk, pumpkin puree, a scoop of protein powder, a dash of cinnamon and nutmeg, and a few ice cubes.
Pumpkin Spice Chia Seed Pudding: Combine chia seeds with almond milk, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, and a low-carb sweetener (optional). Let it sit in the fridge overnight to thicken. Top with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
Pumpkin Spice Roasted Chickpeas: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Drain and rinse chickpeas and pat them dry with a paper towel (the drier they are, the crispier they’ll get while roasting). Toss the chickpeas with olive oil, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and sea salt. Spread them in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through to ensure even crisping. Serving size 1/3 cup.

Mini Turkey Meatballs with Cranberry Dipping Sauce: Combine ground turkey with chopped onion, garlic, and herbs. Form into small meatballs and bake or pan-fry. Serve with a side of sugar-free cranberry sauce for dipping.
Spiced Apple Slices with Almond Butter: Slice a small apple and sprinkle with cinnamon and a pinch of nutmeg. Serve with 2 tablespoons of almond butter for dipping.
Sweet Potato Rounds with Tuna Salad: Top roasted sweet potato rounds with a scoop of tuna salad made with Greek yogurt instead of mayo. For extra flavor, mix in some chopped celery, red onion, and Dijon mustard.
Sweet Potato with Cottage Cheese and Cinnamon: Bake a sweet potato and top with a scoop of cottage cheese (blended for a smoother texture). Sprinkle with cinnamon and a drizzle of sugar-free maple syrup (for example Log Cabin sugar-free syrup) for a warm and comforting snack.
Leftover Turkey and Cranberry Quesadillas: Fill low-carb tortilla with shredded leftover turkey, cheese, spinach, and a spoonful of sugar-free cranberry sauce. Cook in a pan until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is golden brown.
