You possibly will not accept that you could lose weight while on a eating plan which includes pueblo pumpkin candy but it is possible. It is crucial to not eat pueblo pumpkin candy or other high calorie desserts, sweets every day but in moderation.

For example, I allow myself rich food one meal per week. I eat a healthy diet 6 days a week, say 1200 to 1800 calories a day, and then on the 7th day, I eat whatever I want – within reason of course.

I have been using this method for the last 4 weeks and it has helped me to lose 5 kilos. I have not increased my exercise routine or taken any pills or diet drinks. I have just been careful of what I eat on most days and then eat whatever I feel like one day per week.

I also believe it makes things easier if you have professional support when on a weight loss program and for that I registered with the Biggest Loser club. They have several tools to help you monitor your progress and attain your goals.

Pueblo Pumpkin Candy

This is an old Pueblo treat. Traditionally the strips of pumpkin are soaked in a bath of water and wood ashes to soften. Today many Indian cooks substitute baking soda for the ashes. If you prefer a less sweet candy, add the lemon juice and thin strips of lemon zest to the sugar syrup with cilantro. If you have a sweet tooth, roll the dried candy in coarse sugar.

1 (2- to 3-pound) pumpkin
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
2 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup water
Juice and zest of 1 small lemon
3 to 4 sprigs fresh cilantro (optional)

Peel and seed pumpkin and cut it into 2 x 4-inch strips. Stir baking soda into enough water to cover strips. Add pumpkin strips and let stand 12 hours.

Drain and rinse pumpkin in running water. Drop strips into a pot of boiling water and cook until tender but not soft. Remove pumpkin strips, crisp in ice cold water, and drain.

Combine sugar with 1/2 cup water, lemon juice and zest, and cilantro in a saucepan. Heat, stirring, until sugar is dissolved, then boil slowly without stirring for 10 minutes. Add pumpkin strips, cover the pot, and simmer for about 20 minutes until syrup is thick and strips are brittle. Spread candy out on a rack or on a wax paper-covered tray to dry for at least 10 hours.

Roll in additional sugar if desired and store in an airtight container.

Makes about 1 pound.
