    Pumpkin Challenge 2018: Week 3

    A special month-long edition of #KTTeats: The Pumpkin Challenge is an annual tradition where I embark on a month-long journey of daily pumpkin consumption.

    Join me for my 8th annual challenge and the new treats that go along with it!

    It has been a bit of a scramble these past two weeks, so I would like to apologize to no one in particular about my delayed pumpkin updates. I started a new job and sitting down to write about pumpkin after finding time to acquire pumpkin has proved surprisingly challenging! But, here we are: the third week of Pumpkin Challenge 2018.

    You can still try this seasonal treat! While it may scream “autumn,” this can add some visual and physical warmth throughout the winter as well. I opted for a half-sweet, almond-milk version and enjoyed the combined pumpkin and chai flavours!

    Thank-you, H.H., for this pumpkin pasta sauce recipe! I don’t often take the time to make things on the stove that take longer than 5 minutes to cook… This was worth it! I added spinach for some greens and it worked out quite deliciously.

    Day 6: Pumpkin Chocolate, Lindor

    Arriving late off a flight, I was not sure what my pumpkin item would turn out to be, but I was pleasantly surprised to be presented with pumpkin chocolate spheres upon my arrival! I didn’t find the pumpkin spice flavour to be very prominent in the chocolate, but the mild flavour paired well with it nonetheless.
