I’ve never met a pumpkin I didn’t like! Seeing them everywhere lately has my mouth watering for all things pumpkin – like pumpkin pie, pumpkin bread, pumpkin cookies! When writing my grocery list earlier, I made sure to include the ingredients I’ll need to bake a couple of loaves of pumpkin bread later in the week . . .
For today though, I want to share a pumpkin recipe that I’ve just discovered. It not only sounds delicious, but has a prep time of just 10 minutes. Ya gotta love that!
This recipe is from the Better Homes and Gardens website, but I’ll include it here for your convenience.
Ok, ttyl. I’m off to add cream cheese to the shopping list. 😉

My daughter is NOT domestic. She prefers someone else to cook, though she is a great house cleaner. But she makes a killer pumpkin roll. I have NEVER had better. I used to do stuff like that before I went back to a 40 hour job. Now you have my mouth watering for something pumpkin!!
Sound yummy and simple enough! I might give it a try!
I love all things pumpkin too! I can’t cut into mine to cook with untill I’m done using them in decorations though! Have company coming for Tday, so may have to sacrifice one for a pie 🙁 but ohhhh we all love that pie! I make a pumpkin cake with cream cheese frosting every year…yummm! Also, made a pumpkin soup one year…different and yummy.
Crystal…This sounds so yummy! I’m copying this one also. I love all things pumpkin too! =D Thank you Sweetie!
This sounds delicious! I love anything pumpkin. I will have to give it a try.
