Waste Not, Desire Non – Pumpkin Puree

We bought a novel macro lens in addition to I mean value I’m going to dearest it!  I’ve been shooting some materials to get a piffling practice.  These flowers convey been around for several weeks in addition to are yet pretty.  I dearest the Fall colors.

This lens is actually fun!  I dearest my piffling happy kitchen rooster 🙂

Every twenty-four hours when I come upwards abode from operate I see pumpkins on the forepart porch.  My immature adult woman Allie in addition to I picked several at Halloween in addition to ended upwards alongside a span of extras that didn’t instruct transformed into jack-o-lanterns.  I didn’t convey to educate dinner tonight, again, thence I idea I would attempt out to brand pumpkin puree!

I cleaned upwards the smallest pumpkins.

And asked Abby if she wanted to help take away the stems.

She gave it her best endeavour …

Tried over again from the other direction … but they were yet on at that spot real tight!

I cleaned out the pulp and removed the seeds.

I preheated the oven to 350 degrees in addition to cutting the pumpkin into large chunks.

I saved the pumpkin seeds in addition to volition toast them to brand pepitas!

After nearly an lx minutes the pumpkin was fork tender.  I removed the pumpkin from the oven in addition to allowed it to cool plenty to touch.  I removed the outer peel in addition to cutting the pumpkin into minor pieces.

I lay a few at a fourth dimension inward the nutrient processor in addition to added a tablespoon of water.

I pureed the pumpkin inward several batches.

And then added ane loving cup of pumpkin to each pocketbook for freezing.

When I desire to brand pumpkin breadstuff or pie, I tin dismiss line these out of the freezer in addition to I’m proficient to go.

I dearest non wasting food.  This was a combat fourth dimension consuming but non at all hard.  If yous don’t convey a nutrient processor, a blender should operate merely every bit well.  Be certain to add together a piffling H2O in addition to enjoy!

Hope yous convey a lovely Friday!
