I spotted this Garden
Lites Pumpkin Spice Souffle at Target and into my cart it went. I admit, at
first when I saw the words “pumpkin spice” and “souffle” in the same sentence I
was a little apprehensive. I wasn’t sure if it was going to be a rewarding food
experience. But there’s a little saying that says “don’t judge a book by its
cover” so I tried not to.
After calculating the points plus values, I was quite
excited to see the points plus values are actually notated on the box. Once I
found this, it made looking at other flavor options a breeze.
One day I wanted something pumpkiny for dessert. Wrinkling
my nose at the options presented to me, I decided to give the pumpkin spice soufflé
a shot. I heated it up in the microwave
per the box directions. After letting it cool for a few minutes I tried it and
was very impressed from that very first bite. It tasted just like pumpkin pie
filling. I decided to jazz it up just a
little more with a tablespoon of sugar free maple syrup over the top … and it
was sinfully delicious! It was undoubtedly pumpkin spice – but more pumpkin
than spice which I truly appreciated. It wasn’t eggy in the least bit, but it
did have a little bit of a creamy quality to it on the tongue which was
reminiscent of custard. Overall, delicious – and so delicious that I made sure
to pick up another box on my last trip through Target.
A serving (the whole bowl – 7 ounces) is 190 calories or 5
points plus values.
