Pumpkin Pumpkin Bars
I made pumpkin bars (Note: there was a mistake in the nutritional info that has since been updated) the other day. Hubby and I absolutely loved them so I thought I’d whip up a batch for the coworkers to enjoy.
I thought it would be fun to use a pumpkin cookie cutter for the bars. I added orange food coloring to the frosting and piped it through a ziploc bag with a whole cut out of one of the corners. Everyone loved them! 
For this batch, since I wasn’t going to be eating any of them, I used 1/3 less fat cream cheese for the frosting. It definitely lowers the calories and fat of the frosting some.
I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 
This looks like such a perfect summer salad. I would definitely add a ton of cilantro. I love it!
Looks perfect. Yum.
Your pictures look great! I am glad you liked this – I need to make it again soon!
oh Yum, I will have to try this. Way to improvise in the kitchen, looks like your kitchen is still in the works.
I have seen this recipe floating around and I must try it!
I’m in so long as I can pick out the tomatoes! 🙂 Not a fan of them.
Btw, I made your 40 clove chicken in the slow cooker…..HOLY COW, was that good and so easy (best part)! I’d made it before but a different recipe and not in the slow cooker. My honey actually put it all in the crockpot. My Mom loved it!

I saved this from Colleen’s site, too. It looks so good. A perfect summer salad!
It is so good. For anyone who’s thinking about making it. DO IT! I also made it again the other day. I didn’t have an avocado around, so I just mixed in a packet of Wholly Guacomole instead. It was delicious.
YUMMY! It looks great and perfect for the summer!
Update! I made this and added a few additional ingredients. I love it!
