Pumpkin + mac & sauce

This year my parents surpriced me by buying a pumpkin (i guess i had asked/spammed for one so more likely they buy then ofc xD).

The bad thing in norway is they only got pumpkins week before halloween and not the rest of the year, atleast not that i have seen, and you have to buy a superbig one then. The one i had was probably 6+ kg.

I was too lazy to carve it out for halloween, so i just ate it =p Like every day for a week, so got a bit tired after a while xD So i tried different things, and what i found out worked best was pumpkin pieces in curry or soup, or grated pumpkin in different dishes (i tried in sauce and lasagne). In muffins/pancakes was also good =p What wasnt good was oven roasted, but could be i did it badly.


This i made twice (with and without cauliflower). I dont remember exactly what i did, so ill just put what i think i did.

Mac & pumpkinsauce:

Ingredients:
Macaroni (or other pasta)
Margarine
Onion
Garlic (optional)
Cauliflower (optional, and can also use other veggies)
Grated pumpkin + maybe pumpkin puree if you got that (i had leftovers)
Flour
Non-dairy milk
Stock cube
Nutritional yeast
Salt and pepper

Boil macaroni. Saute onion and garlic and cauliflower (could be i used water also, i dont remember). Mix in some flour and add milk, grated pumpkin, stock cube and let it simmer. Add nutritional yeast and salt and pepper.

Yammies! (yes it looks like puke, but tasted very good =D)
