I really can't figure out why I don't like pumpkin pie, because seriously I LOVE everything else pumpkin!!
Here's a yummy one:


Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Pancakes


1 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tablespoons light or dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/8 tsp. ground cloves
1/8 tsp. ground ginger
1 cup buttermilk, shaken (I just used regular milk
1 egg
1/4 cup pumpkin puree
1/2 tablespoons of butter, melted and cooled slightly
1/2 cup chocolate chips

In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda,
salt, and spices: cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and ginger. In a measuring cup (or small bowl),
measure out the milk. Add the egg and lightly beat. Next, mix in the pumpkin puree
until completely blended. Pour in the slightly cooled melted butter and mix. 

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
The batter should have some small to medium lumps.
Heat up your griddle or cast iron skillet over medium low-heat and brush with
1 tablespoon of butter. Scoop the batter, using a 1/4 cup measure, to the warm skillet.
Top each pancake with desired amount of chocolate chips. I added about 8-12 chips
per pancake. Cook until small bubbles form on the surface of the pancake and then flip.
 Cook on opposite side for about 40 seconds, or until golden brown.

Easy Donuts

Joe introduced me to these, and Paula Deen has a recipe for them on Food Network . So I am jumping to the conclusion that they are popular in the South... :) Here's how we made ours. Heat 2 inches of vegetable oil in a large pot on medium heat. You want to heat to about 350 degrees, so we used a candy thermometer to monitor the temp. Prepare the toppings. Note - For the toppings, we didn't actually measure any of the ingredients, just eyeballed it. But this is about how much we used. Glaze: 1/2 cup powdered sugar 1 Tbsp milk (add more to thin as necessary) Whisk together, set aside. Chocolate Glaze: 1/2 cup powdered sugar 2 Tbsp cocoa powder 1 Tbsp milk (add more to thin as necessary) Whisk together, set aside. Cinnamon Sugar Coating: 1/2 cup powdered sugar 2 Tbsp Cinnamon Whisk together in a dish with a lid or a paper bag, set aside. Peanut Butter Chocolate Glaze: 1/2 cup powdered sugar 2 Tbsp cocoa powder 1 Tbsp milk 2 Tbsp peanut b

Chicken Lettuce Wraps

By Amy
I got this recipe from my mom, who got it from her sister, who got it from...I'm not sure who, but I tried it and Mike and I liked it. It is not an exact replica of PF Changs infamous Lettuce Wraps, but it is similar. Brown chicken (the recipe calls for 2-3 chicken breasts - I used 2) in skillet. Remove and set aside and then either shred or cut into small chunks. Pour 2 T canola or olive oil into skillet and add 1 T grated or minced fresh ginger root and some rice straws, if desired. I used my kitchen shears to cut a bunch off. Rice straws have to be softened in the oil. Cook about 4-5 minutes. Then add back in the chicken you have either shredded or cut. Continue cooking while adding vegetables. I added shredded carrots, broccoli cut into small pieces, water chestnuts cut into quarters, Italian green beans cut into small pieces (slender whole beans cut up would work), red pepper, green onion (or use onion powder), baby corn cobs cut into 2 or 3 slices, and whatever else you would
