So I roasted a couple of Pumpkins yesterday.  I cooked, pureed, and cooked again the pulp to the most lovely smooth consistency.  Some of the batch was made into a savory pumpkin sauce for next week’s Pumpkin Sage Gnocchi.  The majority however, was sweetened up and stuffed along with a spiced Ricotta mixture into French Toast for this weekend.  Drizzled generously with an Orange reduction and Golden Raisins.  Delish!

I’ve recently begun experimenting with a lovely tomato based sauce with carrots and celery, and many other ingredients I won’t share for our ‘Habas Gigantes’, or Giant Lima Beans Tapas dish.  Delicious, hot saucy beans served over toast.

Fried spicy Zucchini with minted yogurt or Roasted Acorn Squash with fresh Thyme and Parmesan cheese are other lovely options for Vegetarians.

And for the meat lovers, our Prosciutto wrapped Dates always please!
