Hi everybody! Yes, it’s THAT time of year again. Pumpkin Spice season! I’ve noticed that people tend to get pretty passionate about pumpkin spice everything…either they LOVE it and can’t get enough, or they can’t stand it. I’m definitely more on the “love it” side. In fact, one of my favorite pumpkin spice recipes is featured below (my pumpkin version of my family’s “Wonderful” dessert) but I have several more pumpkin/pumpkin spice recipes that you should NOT miss:

Sometimes I get really spoiled with a houseful of teenagers.

Yes, I really did just say that.

Yesterday, my 14-year-old whipped up a beautiful (and very tasty) pumpkin roll with cream cheese-Cool Whip filling. It was scrumptious. There is something absolutely amazing about fall baking. It doesn’t get any better than this!

Note: if I hadn’t been feeling so awful while she was making tonight’s pumpkin roll, I would have shadowed her and taken pictures along the way to revamp the recipe post. This is an OLD recipe, but despite how the photos look, it is absolutely delicious!

Well, this weekend took an unexpected turn and it has really thrown me for a loop. We thought we were far enough out of Irma’s path to not be directly impacted by the storm, but because of a few circumstances, we ended up spending most of the weekend packing the truck up with food, water, fuel, and supplies to send my husband TO FLORIDA. He arrived safely Monday. Luckily, our family members in Florida are safe, but they needed some extra help, and I’m grateful for a husband who was willing and ready to drop everything, to risk his own safety and comfort to travel down to help family members in need.

I’m up way later than I should be writing this post, but that’s the way the last 2 1/2 days have been. Exhausting! I’ll catch up on sleep another day.

I’m actually excited about this week’s feature – pumpkin recipes! I have a ton of PUMPKIN RECIPES featured on my blog and would love for you to check them out. But if you don’t have time to look at all of them, THESE are the three you should try:

I love traveling, but at this moment, after coming home from 6 days in San Diego (with a nasty cold), I’m ready to sleep for a little while and not get on another plane for an even longer while. Maybe for the rest of the year. The right trip may persuade me to change my mind…but right now I’m happy to keep my feet on the ground and rest my head on my own pillow.

I sure do miss my mom and my nephews, though!

This week, my fellow Delicious Dishes hosts and I decided to do another feature of favorite pumpkin recipes, since you guys are sharing so many AMAZING pumpkin dishes lately! And I don’t know about you, but I can’t get enough of them!

I grew up surrounded by grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins, and we always got together at Grandma and Grandpa’s house for holiday meals. Everyone had their specialty dishes that they’d bring every year, and with a big family like ours that meant a TON of delicious food. Each dish became an important part of our holiday tradition, and we noticed each time that a favorite recipe was missing. Note: affiliate links included within this post.

Pumpkin Wonderful layered dessert by Food Fun Family - a traditional Thanksgiving dish

I have continued to make our traditional holiday“Wonderful” for the last 20+ years, and the chocolate version is an all-time favorite dessert in our house. This year, I thought I’d try giving our Thanksgiving classic dessert a pumpkin twist, and I cannot begin to describe how delicious it was.

Pumpkin Wonderful: a Layered Dessert Recipe for Thanksgiving

Pumpkin Wonderful layered dessert by Food Fun Family - a traditional Thanksgiving dish

“Wonderful” starts out with a basic shortbread-type crust baked in a 9×13 pan (I added finely crushed pecans to the pumpkin version because pumpkins + pecans = perfection). On top of the crust is a cream cheese-powdered sugar-Cool Whip layer. Once that has chilled for a little while, you add a layer of pumpkin spice pudding (a seasonal treat that can be found near the regular puddings…but don’t fret if you can’t find any. You can substitute any pudding (the small 3.4 oz. boxes) for the pumpkin. Top the layers off with the rest of the Cool Whip and a sprinkling of some additional crumbled pecans.

The only question is whether I like the chocolate version or the pumpkin version better…

Pumpkin Wonderful layered dessert by Food Fun Family - a traditional Thanksgiving dish

Pumpkin Wonderful Dessert Recipe

Ingredients

    Crust:
  • 1 1/2 cup flour
  • 3 Tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup finely chopped pecans
  • 1 1/2 sticks (12 Tbsp) butter or margarine, melted
  • Layer 1
  • 1 8-ounce package cream cheese, room temperature
  • 1/2 of an 8-oz package Cool Whip (ie, 4 ounces)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • Layer 2
  • 2 3.4 oz boxes of pumpkin spice Jello instant pudding, prepared according to packages (ie, whisk in 4 cups of cold milk)
  • Layer 3
  • 1/2 of an 8-oz package Cool Whip (ie, 4 ounces)
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans if desired

Instructions

  1. Mix together crust ingredients and press into the bottom of a 9x13" pan. Bake at 350° F for 20 minutes and then let cool.
  2. Layer 1: Meanwhile, mix ingredients for layer one. Spread over cooled crust and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Layer 2: When layer one has chilled, mix 2 boxes of pumpkin instant pudding according to package directions and spread over layer one.
  4. Layer 3: Spread the rest of the cool whip on top of the pudding and garnish with chopped nuts, if desired. Keep in the refrigerator.

Notes

Pumpkin Instant Pudding is a seasonal treat made by Jello, and can be found in October and November next to the rest of the pudding boxes. If you can't find pumpkin pudding, or if pumpkin isn't your thing, then you can substitute your favorite pudding flavor!

Also, it's totally fine to leave the nuts out.

Pumpkin isn’t just for pies and cookies! Check out this recipe round up full of mouth-watering savory pumpkin recipes from the Fresh Flavors Swap!

I have to admit – when I saw that the latest theme for our Fresh Flavors Swap linky party was savory pumpkin recipes (main dishes, appetizers, sides, and more), I thought it would be a real stretch to find many non-dessert recipes using pumpkin. Before last week, I had never cooked any savory pumpkin dishes and I guess I hadn’t been keeping my eyes open for all the recipes that were out there. After this week, I am floored by all of the delicious savory pumpkin recipes that exist! I’m afraid I’m going to drive my family crazy trying a bunch of these…

That’s right, pumpkin is not just for baking! It’s a versatile, healthy, delicious ingredient to use in all sorts of recipes all year long.

You are going to LOVE this pumpkin potato soup – your new favorite soup for winter!

When I think of cooking with pumpkin, I typically think of sweet, baked treats (I’ve made plenty of them over the years!) but I’ve very rarely had savory dishes with pumpkin.

Looking for an easy soup that will really stick to your bones? This hearty pumpkin potato soup recipe is a family favorite!  This recipe will become your go-to soup for winter

Since tomorrow’s Fresh Flavors Swap is all about pumpkin main dishes, I knew that I wanted to at least attempt to add pumpkin to a dinner this week. I’ve seen pumpkin soup before, but I had never tried it before this week. I wasn’t sure if my family would be keen on pumpkin soup for dinner, so I thought I’d be sneaky and add pumpkin to a hearty potato soup that they’d normally eat.

My little pumpkin soup experiment was a huge success. Everyone in the family loved the soup, and they had no idea that there was pumpkin in it! The pumpkin made the soup thick and creamy and perfect. I can’t wait to make it again!

Hearty Pumpkin Potato Soup

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground Italian sausage
  • 3-4 heaping teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1 medium yellow onion, diced
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 6 cups chicken broth
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 3-4 medium potatoes, diced
  • 1 can pumpkin puree
  • 3 cups fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/4 cup lowfat milk

Instructions

  1. Heat sausage in a large Dutch oven, breaking up into small crumbles, and cook until browned; drain excess fat if necessary.
  2. Add minced garlic, chopped onion, and spices (oregano, basil and red pepper flakes). Cook, stirring frequently, for about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add chicken broth, pumpkin puree and bay leaf; bring to a boil. Add diced potatoes and cook for 10-15 minutes, until potatoes are soft when stuck with a fork. Using a potato masher, smash some (but not all) of the potatoes. Stir.
  4. Stir in spinach, milk and cream, and stir just until heated through. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Notes

I based this recipe on a Sausage Potato Spinach Soup recipe I found on Damn Delicious. I thought it would taste great with pumpkin, and I was right!
