Sponsored: What To Do with Leftover (Canned) Pumpkin
Canned pumpkin is an excellent source of beta carotene (vitamin A) and fiber so if you have extra cans of 100% pumpkin around, don’t let them go to waste and don’t think you just have to use them to make a pie. Here are a few ideas of what you can do with canned pumpkin.
• Pumpkin quick breads, scones, muffins or cookies
• Soups or add to chili
• Parfaits or smoothies
Pumpkin Nog Smoothie
- 1/3 c. canned pumpkin
- 1/2 c. egg nog
- 1/2 c. milk (or plant-based beverage)
- 1/4 tsp grated nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp grated cinnamon
- 1/2 c. ice cubes.
Put all ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth. Sweeten as desired.
