Speaking of . . .


Here are a few more suggestions, in addition to the delicious bread below:

Smoothie
1/4 cup cooked* pumpkin
1/4 cup rice milk
1 T peanut butter (I suggest Smuckers natural)
1/4 t honey
4 ice cubes

Blend until smooth.

Soup
1 medium pumpkin, cooked,* peeled, and cubed
6 C rice milk
1 t cinnamon
1 t vanilla
1t maple syrup

Simmer ingredients together for 15-30 minutes (I'm not entirely sure how long). Puree.

Pancakes
1/3 C canned pumpkin
1/2 t cinnamon, nutmeg, or pumpkin pie spice mix
1 1/2 C whole-wheat pancake batter (Trader Joe's has a great whole wheat mix)

Fold all ingredients together. Continue as one does with pancakes.

*To cook the pumpkin, you can either boil the flesh for 8 or so minutes, or bake it. To bake it, cut it into quarters and seed it. Plunk quarters on a baking sheet in a 400 degree oven. Bake for about 50 minutes, or until soft.
