Creamy Pumpkin Dip

I could usually just skip dinner and indulge in the dips. Then again I could just weigh a whole lot more than I do. But there is a time and a season for everything, and it is dip time! What is fun about this one is that it is not in the salt/fat department, which tastes wonderful, but in the interesting creamy, sweet group of spreads. Easy to make in a snap and a great way to eat a lot of apples all at once.
