Get out your sweaters and comfy shoes, we’re going pumpkin picking :)! Well… maybe not, but you’ll really want to after seeing these recipes. Sure, pumpkin and bread go together like pancakes and waffles, but we know you’re here for a little something different. So… whether your sweet tooth is begging for a tasty fall treat or your belly’s begging for a hearty seasonal meal, we’ve got you covered!

After all the trick-or-treaters have gone home and you’re left with one too many pumpkins, don’t let ‘em just sit there and rot! Make Pixen’s Pumpkin and Lilly Bulb Soup. It’s light and nutritious, something I might serve with a nice grilled cheese or, better yet, Nila_Rosa’s Pumpkin Macaroni and Cheese!

Leave a little room for dessert! Lynne’s Pumpkin Pots de Creme Topped With Caramel Whipped Cream recipe proves that I don’t need to wait until Thanksgiving to enjoy a custardy pumpkin dessert. Forget about making a crust, these pots de creme are already a complete dessert. They’ve got sugar, spice and even a hefty dollop of homemade whipped cream on top.

SugarPunk’s got the recipe for you carb lovers! Her Pumpkin Patch Party Cakes aren’t only cute, making them ideal for holiday parties, they’re also more than delicious. That isn’t just any ol’ glaze atop those beautiful cakes, it’s her tasty Orange Cream Icing! Dive in and enjoy!
