I was thumbing through some of my favorite food blogs and I stumbled upon a bunch of pumpkin centered recipes on Skinnytaste.com. I love the combination of pumpkin and cinnamon and I ofcourse like all the beta carotene in pumpkin. I always think I feel and look better when I eat anything with pure pumpkin in it. Right now and Im sure through Thanksgiving, at my local convenience store, pumpkin puree is on sale for 4 for $5.00. I can make probably 3 recipes with the goods. First up, pumpkin cupcakes with pumpkin cream cheese frosting.
