  3. Turn heat to low, add 1 Tbsp vegetable broth, and simmer covered for 8-10 minutes until pumpkin is tender. 
  4. Add 1 tsp sugar-free maple syrup and sage. Tossing to combine. Serve immediately. 

Turkey Breast:

  2. In a small bowl thoroughly mix the cheese (Boursin brand can be found in most supermarkets), chopped unpeeled apples, chopped parsley, toasted almonds, garlic, cinnamon, allspice, salt and pepper in a small bowl. 
  3. Slice the chicken breasts lengthwise creating a pocket for the stuffing; generously salt and pepper on the inside and outside of each breast. Divide the stuffing and fill each breast and secure with a tooth pick(s) on the open ends. 
  4. Heat the skillet over medium high heat with oil. Cook the chicken breasts for about 6 minutes each side until the juices run clear and they are no longer pink in the center. Increase time if the breasts are thick. Serve immediately.
