The Garden Palette Choose Pumpkin for October!
Pumpkin, Pumpkin Art Thou Beautiful oh Pumpkin!
I didn?t grow up eating pumpkin, we were more of a sweet potato family! I can?t ever remember my mommy using pumpkin at all. In fact, I was grown when I start eating it. Not sure if my mom just didn?t like it or what but I can certainly compare the taste of pumpkin vs. sweet potato: to me, pumpkin?s flavor is more pungent, it?s sorta in your face like, ?Notice me, I?m a Pumpkin!? Sweet potatoes have a more sweeter, more laid back flavor like it doesn?t have to be the star of the show! And, of course when you?re driving around town at this time of year in the U.S., you don?t see a bunch of sweet potatoes in the fields!!! haa haaa! I love to see all the pumpkins out and people picking them up. So, when Jen and I chose to feature them this month, of course my mind went to the obvious dishes ? pumpkin pie, pumpkin cookies, etc., but when I post a menu here I sorta want to break with tradition so I chose a more unconventional menu I think. And, I know my vegetarian friends will like this as well! As I mentioned, I didn?t grow up eating pumpkin...read more and get my full menu on The Garden Palette >>
