Mashed Pumpkin
Cut the pumpkin and take out the seeds. You can use the seeds also for other recipes. Wash and dry them very well, take it to the oven 250 degrees F for 6 hours. Seeds will be pretty dried and you can add some sea salt to flavor them. You can also add them to your shakes to increase your dose of magnesium.
Cut the pumpkin into pieces and put it in a baking sheet with coconut oil, roast it for 45 mins in the oven at 420 degrees.
Once roasted and browned, remove the skin and put their meat in a processor and make pure.
Put the puree in plastic bags to freeze, take them to the freezer for up to 2 months preserved. You already have puree for other recipes of your preference.
Planning your meals it’s really important if you’re starting a lifestyle change.
Crust
Ingredients
To make this yummy gluten free crust full of flavor you will need:
-
2 cups almond flour (I use a nut and coconut flour that is already mixed)
-
½ cup of sea salt
-
2 tbsp of coconut nectar sugar
-
⅓ cup of coconut oil
-
1 scrambled egg
Mix all the ingredients, add coconut oil and the scrambled egg. Knead until reaching a ball and stretch it in a tart pan, border all around so that it is our crust for this pie. Take it to the freezer for 15 mins while doing the filling.
