When fall rolls around, I go crazy with my pumpkin recipes. It’s so tasty, nutritious, and easy. I usually make one or two dishes from a real pumpkin every year, but more often than not I reach for convenient canned pumpkin. Pumpkin purée is loaded with vitamins and nutrients as well as lots of fiber. I add it to lots of different recipes, from savory to sweet treats. Pies and soup are usually what comes to mind first when trying to think of pumpkin recipes, so I’ve compiled a list here of some great unexpected pumpkin recipes. And all these recipes use easy canned pumpkin purée. — angie mcgowan
