Thanks for the pumpkin ideas!

[Guest guest]

i enjoyed reading all the ideas for using up the

leftover pumpkin puree in my refrigerator.

i don't know if i would ever be able to eat pumpkin

warmed with butter like i enjoy butternut squash

or acorn squash, but maybe i should give it a try.

i did take a recipe for a chocolate chip banana bread

recipe and used a cup of the pumpkin in the place

of the banana. i added a few other ingredients and

it came out wonderful. When it was baking my

children thought i was making brownies.

i will post it next...

 

Rad, the way you clean the pumpkin seeds off

is how i do it. i can't think of any other way, and

i guess i will just have to deal with the slime and

have fun with it. It is always worth it in the end.
