Here’s how to turn that pumpkin into puree: Preheat oven to 350° degrees F. Cut your pumpkin into 4-6 large wedges. Place the wedges skin side up on a lightly oiled baking sheet. Bake for approximately 90 minutes (or until pumpkin is fork tender). Scoop the flesh out of the skin into a bowl, then mash it or whirl it in a food processor. If the purée is a bit watery, cook in a saucepan over medium heat until some of the moisture has evaporated. Let cool, then portion into freezer bags or containers and freeze. The purée can be defrosted quickly in the microwave or by placing the frozen bag or container into a bowl of hot (but not boiling) water. Use by itself to help with canine constipation or diarrhea (check with your vet for the amount appropriate for your dog), or use it in your favorite recipe for dog treats! *Recipe from laurelhuntbooks/?p=316 Check out some of these great pumpkin dog treat recipes:Mabis and her pumpkin Woofies Pumpkin Treats: bit.ly/LjexMP Apple, Cinnamon, Sweet Potato, Pumpkin Dog Treats: bit.ly/1bAi7QW Dog Foodie Pumpkin Treats: bit.ly/RwQSjd Pumpkin Treats with Honey, Cinnamon and Clove: bit.ly/RepwcX Bonappetit!
