Pumpkin-y Possibilities
When we think fall, we tend to think pumpkin. This functional favorite is a great addition to both sweet and savory seasonal dishes. Give the chef-approved recipes below a try.
Cinnamon Pumpkin Oatmeal
Crisp fall mornings should begin with something warm and comforting and our Cinnamon Pumpkin Oatmeal does the trick! Start by simmering old-fashioned rolled oats until they’re cooked all the way through. Then add a dollop of canned pumpkin, a sprinkle of ground cinnamon and spoon full of brown sugar for an extra touch of sweetness. This breakfast option is as easy as (pumpkin) pie!
Pumpkin-Curry Vegetable Sauté
Looking for an autumnal vegetarian dish with a touch of spice? You’re in luck. Made with a fresh blend of seasonal favorites like butternut squash, chopped cauliflower and pureed pumpkin, this entrée seamlessly ties in seasonal favorites and global flavors with curry, turmeric and chili powder.
Pumpkin White Chocolate Chip Cookies
This whole wheat sweet treat from our partner Rich’s will quickly become an after-dinner favorite. Mixing together dry ingredients may be the first step, but the real burst of flavor comes from pumpkin puree, vanilla and white chocolate chips. Be sure to try these cookies fresh out of the oven for the best bite.
