I love chorizo!!! So why not put it in your Thanksgiving dressing (or stuffing!)?!? The combination of fresh baked cornbread, chorizo and fresh veggies makes this stuffing a homerun. It is my absolute favorite dish on the Thanksgiving table.

We started barbecuing our turkey years ago! It’s so delicious and it frees up your oven for all the other stuff you need to cook. Best of all, it gives my husband something to do! LOL!
Happy Thanksgiving!!!

I had an extra can of pumpkin puree hanging out and we were having a family birthday luncheon, so I thought we needed a pumpkin flavored dip. I’ve made hummus plenty of time. It’s so easy!!! Why not add that pumpkin flavor for a perfect fall dip! Our whole family loved this dip and it was so easy to make and healthy to boot!
If you’ve never made hummus, it’s one of those things where you just dump all the ingredients in your food processor and blend it up. That’s it!
This recipe has some spice to it with the cayenne pepper. I didn’t find it super spicy, but you can add that pepper a little at a time and taste along the way if you want to control the spice level.
I hope you like it! It’s a great add to your Thanksgiving or Friendsgiving appetizer table! And if you end up with a bunch of leftovers, you could use it to make this awesome Hummus Crusted Chicken!
I hope you and your loved ones have a blessed Thanksgiving! I’m always grateful for all of you that take the time to read my blog!
Spicy Pumpkin Hummus
1 – 15 oz can of pumpkin puree
1 – 15 oz can of garbanzo beans (chickpeas), drained & rinsed
Juice of one lemon
3 tbsp tahini
2 tbsp olive oil
1 garlic clove
1 tsp Cayenne pepper (or less if you don’t want it as spicy)
1 tsp cumin
Salt and pepper to taste
Put pumpkin and garbanzo beans in food processor and blend until fairly smooth. Add all other ingredients and blend until smooth and completely blended. Scrape sides of bowl and continue to blend as needed.
This can even be made the day before as it’s one of those things that gets better as it sits.
Makes about 3 cups of hummus.
Enjoy!
