Happy days it is almost Fall, and that can only mean it is time to enjoy some delicious pumpkin dinner recipes! My oh my the choice is unlimited!  I love the crisp Autumn leaves, the smell of logs on the fire and of course the taste of divine pumpkin whether it be in a curry, stew or risotto!

I have got together with my favorite foodies and come up with lots of easy pumpkin recipes for dinner! These are all so different that they will suit a range of palates!

There are vegan and meat options so that everyone can enjoy dinner recipes with pumpkin all over Fall and beyond, if you store your own pumpkin puree properly. 

So many of my readers tell me they love Fall recipes but then they ask, 'what food goes with pumpkin'? You will be surprised at the range of foods that you can serve with pumpkin for dinner!

You can mix n match some of these recipes, for instance if you prefer pork or beef over turkey add that particular meat instead.

Quiche is my go to meal whenever I am short of time and have to have the kids out for swimming lessons after dinner. We all love a good pumpkin quiche in this house and this recipe is perfect during Fall. Normally we have ham in our quiche and this can also be added for extra meatiness.

I can guarantee this will be one of those pumpkin dinner recipes you want to make again and again.
