This weekend we took the kids to a pumpkin patch and they absolutely loved it! Now we have lots of pumpkins, and need to put them to good use. Here are 5 recipes I can’t wait to use with fresh (or canned) pumpkin.
Flan
Make a mouth-watering pumpkin-flavored flan this fall. This recipe calls for solid packed canned pumpkin, which shouldn’t be confused with pumpkin pie filling packed with sugar.
RECIPE: Pumpkin Flan
Bread
In the mood for bread or muffins? You can make either with this recipe using fresh-grated pumpkin and pumpkin seeds. Make a double batch and freeze for later.
RECIPE: Pumpkin Bread
Soup
Need an extra boost of antioxidants? Whip up this soup with pumpkins, acorn squash, carrots and orange — all excellent sources of antioxidants vitamins A and C.
RECIPE: Orange Pumpkin Soup
Pasta
Add a touch of sweetness using pumpkin puree in this delicious pasta dish. Even with a touch of heavy cream, the recipe weighs in at around 400 calories per serving.
RECIPE: Penne-Wise Pumpkin Pasta
Salsa
Use pumpkin seeds to whip up this crowd-pleasing and figure-friendly salsa. Extracting them isn’t tough as you can see from this Alton Brown video.
RECIPE: Pumpkin Seed Salsa
