    Halloween is creeping closer! ๐Ÿ•ธ

    I know some of us will be busy carving, scooping and crafting your master pieces for our Spooktacular Pumpkin Competition for those that haven't yet there's still time! ๐Ÿ‘€

    But what do you do with all those pumpkin guts after the carvings all done?

    Or perhaps your carving for fun days are over but you love a good Pumpkin recipe!

    I've seen some amazing recipes from tasty roasted seeds and making bread to turning the leftovers into compost if you're not in the Chef it up mood! โ™ป

    At EON Next we're always all about finding fun ways to be more sustainable - whether its through renewable energy, reducing waste or making small changes that add up to make a big impact! ๐ŸŒ

    Here are a few recipes that caught my eye ๐Ÿ‘€

    I feel like there are a lot of Latte lovers out there! โ˜•

    Smoothies or Lattes
    • Blend cooked Pumpkin pulp with banana, cinnamon, nutmeg and milk ( or plant milk)
    • Add Coffee for a DIY pumpkin spiced Latte!
    Pumpkin Gut fritters
    • Mix pulp with flour, sugar, eggs, butter, baking soda and spices ( Cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger )
    • Bake into a moist loaf or Muffins
    If it all goes wrong it makes amazing compost!

    ๐ŸŽƒ Whats your favourite way to use your Pumpkin leftovers?
    ๐ŸŽƒ Have you got a green Halloween tip to help others waste less or save more energy?

    @Anasa_EONNext I haven't made a pumpkin late before ๐Ÿ‘€ I might give this a go!

    My go to is always soup, I take the meat from the insides and boil it with some garlic, onions and vegetable stock. Once cooked through i blend it all together, add double cream and plenty of seasoning ๐Ÿ˜‹ you can also add chilli flakes ๐Ÿฒ

    @Anasa_EONNext I've never actually thought about the insides! it normally just goes in the garden waste bin! ๐Ÿ™ˆ

    But I do love a good soup and @Poppy_EONNext that sounds delicious ๐Ÿ˜‹ so I may have to give it a try.
