    I like it roasted with a little olive oil. Or sautéed with butter.

    Pumpkin pie protein shake!

    Half a banana (or a whole one if you don't mind the carbs. Half an avocado for a really creamy one)
    1/2 cup pumpkin pure
    a scoop of vanilla protein powder
    a tsp of pumpkin pie spice
    ice and almond milk to make it the texture you want.

    Tasty!!

    I forgot to mention I freeze most of these (baked first) and grab one out when I want one for breakfast, snack, or anytime. Nuke for 30 seconds and you have a delicious, warm muffin. There are three of us that are on MFP and having a bag of these frozen is so handy for all of us!

    Soup - cook & mash/puree (or use canned) with sauteed shallots or onions; thin with chicken or vegetable broth or milk/cream, or combination; season with nutmeg.
    Pasta sauce - cook & mash/puree (or use canned); thin just a little (should be thicker than marinara sauce); finish with fresh sage, cooked finely chopped bacon/pancetta, and/or grated parmesan.

    I made this the other day. A bit time consuming, but the payoff was a delicious dish. Also it made enough that I could freeze 2/3 of the fresh raviolis to use later. Makes for a quick after work meal because they can go straight from the freezer to the hot water.

    I mixed a spoonful of Trader Joe's pumpkin butter in greek yogurt this morning, and topped it with cinnamon and slivered almonds. I think you could do the same with plain canned pumpkin.

    It's really good in beef stew, too, instead of potatoes, with thyme and bay leaf.

    I like pumpkin as a savoury side dish, like sweet potatoes, roasted with olive oil and sea salt.

    My daughter makes these little mug cakes (individually portioned and they cook in the microwave in one minute each). They are so good! I'm not a sweets eater at all, but I actually ask her to make these occasionally. The taste and texture are amazing.

    Well, lo and behold, she started adding a tablespoon of pureed (canned) pumpkin to the top of each and they got even better!

    I'm a sucker for pumpkin anyhow. I'm going to make pumpkin butter in the slow-cooker next. :smile:


    ETA: Recipe details in case you can't view them...


    Pillsbury - All Purpose Flour, 0.1875 cup
    Argo - Baking Powder Aluminum Free, 0.25 tsp
    Spices - Salt, table, 0.13 tsp
    Dixie Crystals - Granulated Sugar, 3 tsp
    Generic Vanilla Extract - Flavor (Spices)
    Spices - Cinnamon, ground, 0.13 tsp
    Brown Sugar - Light Brown Sugar - 1 Tbsp, 0.5 tsp
    Nutiva - Coconut Oil, 2.5 teaspoon


    Total: 263 35 12 2 481 0 (does not include 1 tablespoon of pumpkin)

    I think she just mixes it all in a coffee mug, tops it with the pumpkin, and nukes it.

    I like to toss raw pumpkin pieces in coconut oil and sprinkle with salt and sage then roast them. Pumpkin oven fries FTW.

    I take about 2 cups of cooked pumpkin and mix it in a saucepan with 1-2 cups of cooked sweet potato (no skin) and enough chicken broth to get to the consistency of mashed potatoes. Then add about 1/2 tsp each of onion powder and garlic powder, and salt and pepper to taste. Spoon on top of the sweet potato skins and serve (with a little bit of butter, if you want). Great low-calorie substitute for mashed potatoes.

    Someone posted about a protein site where i found these amazing looking pumpkin pancakes. Check it out, they also have pumpkin pie oatmeal and apple crepes that look very good too. All recipes are high protein.

    http://highproteinfoods.org/pumpkin-cinnamon-protein-pancake-recipe/

    Ingredients

    1/2 cup Pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)
    1/2 tsp Cinnamon (or 1/4 tsp pumpkin spice + 1/4 tsp cinnamon)
    1/2 tsp Baking powder
    2 Egg whites
    1/2 cup Oats
    1/2 cup + 2 tbs water
    1 scoop Protein powder(Vanilla Protein Powder – I used Designer Whey)
    1/2 cup toasted pecans, coarsely chopped
    3-5 packets of Stevia (or 1/2-1 tbs sweetener of choice)
    Directions

    Put all of the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth! You can use a hand blender and a bowl if you have one.
    Meanwhile, heat up a nonstick griddle coated with cooking spray over medium heat. Spoon about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto griddle.
    Turn pancakes over when tops are covered with bubbles and edges look cooked. Serve warm!

    No recipes, but add it to oatmeal somehow.
