Can of pumpkin

[vraiblonde]

I have two cans of pumpkin that I don't know what to do with. They were on sale at Whole Foods so I grabbed them, and now I need to figure out what to turn them into.

Any ideas besides cakes or pumpkin butter?

A lot of dogs like pumpkin. I have hooves and bones I fill and freeze and they get them as a treat almost every night.
Plus it has a lot of fiber and is filling. Also good for when they are backed up and/or squirty.

How about a soup base kind of like butternut squash soup, garlic, onions, cream etc.

I make these pretty yummy pumpkin protein pancakes when I'm on paleo with almond flour. I usually add some ground flaxseed too.


also, in my last work office I used to make these cookies all the time, I'd double the batch and bring in like 50-70 cookies and they'd all be gone by COB

1 can pumpkin puree
1 box of spice cake mix
1 12 oz bag chocolate chips

mix, 1 large tablespoon-ish scoop per cookies onto greased sheet, bake at 375 for 15 mins.
stupid simple, super soft, and very yummy

pumpkin cupcakes!! all it takes is a box of cake mix (I normally use spice cake) IF I remember correctly the pumpkin replaces the oil in the recipe, would have to double check though.

super yummy with homemade dulce de leche frosting!

Pumpkin Ravioli...

add a beaten egg, ricotta, parmesan, favorite herb, s&p, etc. to canned pumpkin, make ravioli using wonton wrappers, serve with sage butter, boom!

or you can go the sweet route...

YUM! That's what I'm looking for, something savory and not a dessert.

pumpkin chilli, or a "sauce" made from the pumpkin filling - add garlic and red onion, soup, pumpkin strata, pumpkin and onion and whatever pizza, and so on.

I actually found pumpkin one of the easiest non-meat proteins to incorporate in my diet. I've even made pumpkin tacos.

How do you get it into their butts?
