Quick and Easy Pumpkin Pudding

Enjoy a quick and easy seasonal dessert by stirring canned pumpkin purée, along with cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg, into some instant pudding and pie mix. I like to do this with butterscotch-flavored pudding, but vanilla pudding works just as well. Remember to use nonfat milk to keep this dessert low fat, and if you're looking to reduce the sugar content too, use a sugar-free pudding mix. Top this super-easy pumpkin pudding with a few pieces of candy corn or with a dollop of fat-free whipped topping (with two mini chocolate chip eyes to make a little ghost).
