Pumpkin Palooza!
Recipes for Healthy Eating, Anti-Aging and Natural Weight Control
October 2014

Greetings!

 

Pumpkins, persimmons and pomegranates are some of my favorite seasonal delights and each year I look for fun and original ways to use these tasty ingredients.  Hope you enjoy this assortment of  pumpkin-inspired sweet and savory recipes.  

 

As popular as Starbuck's Pumpkin Latte is every fall, check out the meme below to see how toxic this beverage really is  - AND there's no pumpkin in them, just spice!  My Perfect Pumpkin Latte makes a great alternative - and even the kids will enjoy.   

  

Watch me on the Daytime Show this Tuesday, October 28th, where I show the hosts how to make Walnut Pate.   Here in Tampa it airs at 10 am on the NBC affiliate but it is a national show so you can check out their website to see where/when in your area.  In the next newsletter I'll have a link to the video and recipe.

 Pumpkin Swirl NO--Cheesecakes  

 

What we love to recreate in the Raw Fusion kitchen are nutritious, delicious alternatives for our favorite comfort foods.

 

So I decided translate the concept  to a Pumpkin Swirl Mini Cheescake, part of my "Pumpkin Palooza" last fall.   

 

These freeze well and stay fresh for at least a month in a freezer bag  Just defrost slightly before serving.  So you can get started on your Thanksgiving and Holiday desserts! 

 

Check out the full recipe

here.

     

And here are some of my other past and present pumpkin creations - Please let me know what you think of them!  These can be fully raw (using fresh pumpkin, butternut squash or sweet potatoes OR raw fusion, using organic canned pumpkin puree.  

 

Pumpkin Whoopie Pies

Pumpkin Hummus  (scroll down towards bottom on the recipe page)

Pumpkin Cream Soup

Pumpkin Breakfast Crepe 

Pumpkin Custard Pie 

 

Look-at-Latte  


  Healthy Pumpkin Latte Alternative   

  

Our luscious alternative will not only save you money, the taste is wonderful - with caffeine-free and vegan options!

 

With 18 grams of fat, 50 grams of sugar and 380 calories, you might want to take a second look at Starbuck's signature seasonal favorite.

Then take a deeper look at the ingredients and you might seriously want to rethink ordering these anymore. 
* No real pumpkin
*Carrageenan (carcinogen that causes inflammation)
*Sulfites - difficult for allergies and lactose sensitivities
*GMO's and other toxic additives   
 

 

Enjoy all year round!

paleo pumpkin   Raw Fusion "Paleo Pumpkin" Recipe for the Holidays

With so many people these days eating a gluten-free, grain-free or plant-strong diet these days, here is the ideal offering for your guests.  This can be your "main event", side dish, or alternative to turkey. 

Bake the pumpkin until nice and soft and fill with an herb-infused nut pate, which gently steams in the cooked pumpkin but remains essentially raw. 

Inspired Raw Fusion Fare!
