Pumpkin Pudding in a Bowl

This may be the last pumpkin for breakfast recipe (although I'm not making any promises).

This idea of pumpkin pudding made from bran cereal intrigued me.  I will admit it is a bit more in the prep work than the other two pumpkin recipes posted this week. Don't worry -  it isn't super labor intensive unless you consider pushing the button on a blender labor intensive.

What do you do with the left over pumpkin you have after making the pumpkin parfaits from our previous post? Well, you make pumpkin pudding in a bowl!

This comes from one of my favorite food blogs. Seriously, I haven't been disappointed on her blog yet.  See the link at the bottom to check out more of her stuff.

Pumpkin Parfaits

Here is another pumpkin infused breakfast idea.  I know - I'm pumpkin crazy right now. I love trying out these new ideas on the kiddos and just seeing how it goes.

So pumpkin parfaits for breakfast....why not?

Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls - Yep

So I am kinda obsessed with pumpkin right now. I can prove it. I have pumpkin waffles, pumpkin butter, pumpkin coffee, and pumpkin creamer in my house at this very minute.  Needless to say, when I heard about making pumpkin cinnamon rolls, I had to try it.  This recipe was a lot of fun to create with my 4 year old. It is really easy to make and only bakes for 20 minutes. Try this out. You will NOT be disappointed.

Warm You Up Pumpkin Soup

I will start this post by telling you I do not have a lot of pictures and I promise to take more next time I make this dish.  Honestly? I thought we were going to hate it so there wouldn't be a need to document pictures for a blog post. This is a recipe that has been sitting on my pinterest "to-make" list for a while, but decided to give it a shot this week because we had an extra can of pumpkin.

I was SO SO wrong.  This soup was delicious.  It was tasty, it was easy to make, and super cheap. I figure we probably spent $5 on the whole thing. I will say that the kids did not eat it just because soup is a hard thing for them to handle right now but I will definitely be making this again for the hubby and me!

Whole Wheat Pumpkin Oatmeal Muffins

I'm craving sweets.  Real bad.  Lots of sweets.  Anything I can get my hands on really.  And this is happening during one of the worst possible times of the year - Halloween candy is EVERYWHERE!!  I overdid it yesterday and felt it in the afternoon.  But, nonetheless I woke up this morning with more sweets on the brain.  Pregnancy, sigh.  After a quick look on Facebook this morning, I found that Team ACT had posted a picture of her Super Easy 2 Ingredient Pumpkin Muffins and decided it was high time for some pumpkin in these parts!  One problem.  No cake mix.  Doh!  SO, online searching I went.  These from Kitchen Treaty are moist and delicious, just like the pumpkin muffins Team ACT made, but they do require a little more time.  Good news, however, (Miss Team ACT :)) ... they're even better if you add chocolate chips to the mix!!
