Pumpkin carving XV

food-leftAh yes, yummy Autumn food. We just finished our 15th (!!!) annual pumpkin carving party, and it was so much fun seeing old friends. Of course, we’ll be fishing pumpkin seeds out from random places for a few months, but that’s par for the course.

Lots of delicious food, and a few new recipes that I’ll share ASAP.

Hot mulled apple cider

Brownies (see pic above) I used a new recipe because I wanted  a flaky top. And it WAS flaky…but it didn’t fill out the pan well, so I’ll need to tweak that.

My Sweet Potato Pie (pictured above)

Pumpkin Paleo Bread:

I used this recipe, and good good feedback.

We did have food, even though most people didn’t notice. I made this White Chicken Chili, and I absolutely love it. It was in the crockpot, and super simple.

I need a nap…and I’ll be happily eating leftovers for the next week!

 

About Cheryl Harris

Life played a funny trick on me. I've studied nutrition for years, and much to my surprise, found out that I could manage many of my health issues via diet. I've been GF for years, and I've got a bunch of allergies and sensitivities. But it definitely doesn't keep me from cooking, baking and enjoying my food. Thanks for stopping by.
