Roasted Pumpkin
Contributed by Jan Hyde
Tonight for dinner I roasted pumpkin for the side dish. I sliced a small pumpkin into about 1 inch thick slices, drizzled EVOO on them, some salt and pepper and through them in the oven at 350. When done, the fleshy part of the pumpkin easily peels away from the skin. It was delicious!

Pumpkin Soup with Jalapenos
Contributed by Garrett Mair
| so I made a pumpkin soup with jalapenos like Madge did. here is the recipe I based it off of: Ingredients • 2 jalapeno peppers, roasted and chopped • 1 15-ounce can pumpkin • 2 cups chicken broth • 2 tablespoons heavy cream • 1 large Spanish onion, diced • 2 carrots, diced • 1 teaspoon garlic, minced • 1 teaspoon olive oil • ½ teaspoon ground cloves • ½ teaspoon ground all spice Cooking Directions 1. Heat a sauté pan to medium heat. 2. Add olive oil, onion and carrot. 3. Cook about 5 minutes or until vegetables begin to soften. 4. Add vegetables to a medium sized pot and add chicken broth, jalapeno peppers, cloves and all spice. 5. Simmer for 15 minutes. 6. Add pumpkin and heavy cream. 7. Mix well. 8. Transfer soup to a blender and process until smooth. 9. Return to pot and heat on low about 5 minutes. 10. Serve. I substituted 1 part milk 1 part Greek yogurt for the cream I also tripled the chicken broth and added two chicken breasts we topped it with a pinch of cheese and some whole grain (no additives) tortilla chips. I must say it was fantastic, definitely something I will make again. |
Harvest Pumpkin Stew
Contributed by Cathy Lind
Trim all fat from 2 lb round steak and cut into 1/2 in cubes. In plastic bag, mix:
1/4 cup whole wheat flour 1/4 tsp pepper
1 1/2 tsp salt 1/8 tsp ground cloves
Add meat all at once and shake to coat. In skillet, heat 3 tbsp oil. Add meat and cook until brown. Then add:
1 tsp beef boullion granules 2 cups water
2 cups (packed) peeled fresh tomatoes, chunks and juice
Cover and simmer 2 hours (very low heat, just under boiling)
Wash a 10" (diameter) pumpkin and cut the top off (cut it horizontally so lid won't fall in). Remove and discard seeds and membrane. With a spoon, scrape out 4 cups (packed) pumpkin, being careful to leave a 1/2 in wall. If desired, can scrape out more and freeze.
In a 6-quart pot, combine:
4 cups (packed) fresh pumpkin
4 cups baby red potatoes (unpeeled 1 in chunks)
1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen green beans
2 cups water
2 cups zucchini (unpeeled 1 in chunks)
1 cup whole white pearl onions (peeled - for easy peeling, boil in water for 3 minutes, cut root end off, squeeze toward root end until onion slips out)
Add simmered meat. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat to slow boil and cover 10 - 15 minutes (until beans and potatoes are tender crisp). Serve the stew at this point, or bake and serve in the pumpkin shell.
Preheat over to 350 degrees. Put pumpkin on strong casserole dish or pan. Pour stew into pumpkin. Put top on. Bake 45 minutes.

Pumpkin Pie
Contributed by Amy Mair
Crust:
1 1/4 cups oat flour( Bob's Red Mill brand)
1/4 tsp salt
2 TBSP extra virgin olive oil
5 TBSP water
Mix all ingredients together, press into 9 inch pie pan.
Filling:
2 xtra large eggs or 4 egg whites
15 oz pumpkin(I used acorn squash, cause i couldn't find any pumpkin) Just boil it till soft and stick in blender then measure out your 15oz.
8 drops of Stevia(sweet Leaf Liquid stevia) (could use more for sure once i tasted it...I was improvising because it called for 1/2 cup brown rice syrup and i didn't have that.
1/2 tsp salt
1 3/4 tsp cinnamon
Generous 3/4 tsp Ginger
scant 1/2 tsp cloves
1/4 cup unsweetened apple juice concentrate.
the recipe actually called for 1/4 cup +2 tbsp water BUt I didn't add this either...it just didn't seem like it needed it.
Mix well and pour. Bake at 350 for 42 minutes.
So I got these recipes from The "I can't believe this has no sugar" cookbook by Deborah E. Buhr
My husband made a Banana whip for it:
fresh banana and milk and a packet of stevia that he whipped with a hand mixer.
Ice cream:
we put in our Cuisinart: frozen bananas and 1/4 cup milk and 1tsp vanilla
Ok so I haven't made the apple blueberry one but I imagine the crust the same and then for the filling fresh apples, blueberries and 0% fage with cinnamon and vanilla mixed in.(maybe I'll try that one next month.)
Definitely could have been sweeter but it tasted fine. Maybe that brown rice syrup would have made a difference!
