4+1 pumpkin dishes you must try this fall

4+1 pumpkin dishes you must try this fall

Pumpkins are not just good for carving jack-o'-lanterns or dipping them in honey and putting them in the oven! Their sweet, creamy texture makes them great in both savory and sweet dishes, and they can also make almost any dish juicier.

The soul of the game is the sweet-and-mustard sauce – and pumpkin goes perfectly with this flavor. Add it to the stock, cook a batch of pasta, and you're done. :)

You can also make a big splash with a little pumpkin in the stuffed vegetable genre. These boats are spectacular, filling, and super easy to throw together!

Falafel also deserves a little autumnal touch: pumpkin cubes mixed into the traditional chickpea base give the falafel balls a beautiful color! Pack the pita with fresh salt and pour a little hot sauce over the top!

If you're craving something really warming and spicy after a hard day at work, this curry is the way to go. Be warned, it'll be hard to eat just one plate!

Of course, pumpkin works flawlessly in sweets too. From the puree mixed into batter to waffles, it stays soft for days, so this breakfast can last for days!
