Don’t stop at pie and other sweet desserts when it comes to using pumpkin. I think pumpkin makes some of the best savory dishes as well.

Pumpkin-Vanilla Flan
I have been craving this for a long time and while I have madeflan from scratch so many times (I have the caramel burns to prove it), I just don’t have the free-time to do so. When I saw this little recipe, I knew I wanted to give it a try. It couldn’t be easier to throw together and the…

Spiced Acorn Squash with Brown Butter Glaze
I have always liked squash…all kinds. I don’t even think I could pick a favorite, but acorn squash definitely ranks pretty high up there.

Low-Maintenance Risotto
Who says a pot of risotto needs constant stirring? This creamy, flavorful version practically cooks itself. I love risotto and when done right, it’s primo. However, I just don’t have time to stir and stir and stir to reach that creamy consistency. In traditional risotto recipes, stirring loosens the starch molecules from the outside of the rice grains into the…
