Happy National Pumpkin Day! I could not let today pass by without celebrating so I am sharing some of my pumpkin recipes as well as some of my favorites of all of yours! Not only is pumpkin delicious it is also chock full of vitamins and minerals. Pumpkin has high amounts of Vitamin A, C, fiber, potassium, zinc, and magnesium. Even the seeds are good for you! They are full of healthy fats (essential fatty acids to be exact) and protein!!!
Here’s your round up:
Pumpkin Protein Chocolate Chip Bars
Paleo Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bars
Pumpkin Raisin Protein Muffins
Paleo Pumpkin Mug Cake for One
Pumpkin Protein Post Workout Cookies

Oh boy–it’s way to hard to narrow this down to one favorite pumpkin recipe . . . . but the pumpkin chili I posted about yesterday was pretty darn good. Last week, I made a pumpkin/cauliflower soup–that was excellent. And a couple of weeks ago, I made a protein pumpkin bread. It was on the healthier side, but it worked for me! I want to try making one of the cookie recipes you posted next. I need a pumpkin dessert next!
Pumpkin chili sounds awesome! I’ve never tried it so I’ll have to check out your recipe!
I love how you have these National Food Days, we don’t have anything like that in Australia! But I totally made pumpkin pancakes for breakfast this morning, they would have to be my current favourite pumpkin recipe for sure
Can’t wait to try some of yours!
I love pumpkin pancakes too!
Great post and such a big choice of delicious recipes, thank you! I am eating right now Paleo Pumpkin Oatless Oatmeal which is really good. And I love the Pumpkin Protein Chocolate Chips Bars you created!
Thanks Lucie! Paleo Pumpkin Oatless Oatmeal sounds awesome! I’ll have to try that out too!
Seriously, THIS is the most wonderful DAY of the year!!!! Thanks for sharing and I’m going to see how many of these recipes I can get through this week!
Hahaha I know! I think its my favorite food holiday I’ve celebrated yet!
How did I not know it was national pumpkin day?? Now I feel terrible for not incorporating pumpkin into my day so far. I was even going too for a premorning snack, but decided against it. Oh well
Thanks for sharing all these awesome recipes though.
Hahaha oh no! You better get in lots of pumpkin now then to make up for it!
LOVE IT! And unfortunately I don’t cook with it nearly enough!!
I love it too! You’ll have to have some today in honor of it!
I’m eating pumpkin oatmeal right now!
I haven’t baked with pumpkin nearly enough this fall though… I need to change that!
Perfect! You definitely need to change that!

No idea today was national pumpkin day. I already dropped the ball with my apple cinnamon oatmeal for breakfast, haha
Thank you for including me!
hahaha oh no! You’ll have to add some pumpkin with lunch
You are so good at keeping up with all of the food holidays! I’m planning a pumpkin round-up, but it will just have to be on a random day….;) Love pumpkin, but you already knew that! I think my favorite pumpkin recipe so far was my oat pumpkin chocolate chip cookies. I still have your Paleo pumpkin chocolate chip bars on my “to make” list….maybe this weekend.
Those cookies looked amazing! Love all the pumpkin recipes in the blog world this year!
I didn’t know it was National pumpkin Day (is there a day for everything?!) but I celebrated unintentionally with my pumpkin TVP oats for breakfast! Great round up. I’m so typical, but I do love pumpkin.
How perfect! You celebrated without even knowing it!
I think I’m one of the only bloggers who isn’t -crazy- about pumpkin. I enjoy it on occasion, but I don’t think I’d say that I full out love it. You won’t see me turning down a slice of chocolate chip pumpkin loaf, though
Hahaha no worries not everyone loves pumpkin
chocolate chip pumpkin loaf is a good exception though!
Happy Friday Lady! and how appropriate for it to be PUMPKIN FRIDAY haha. as you know, I LOVE all of your recipe’s… thanks for putting them all in one post!!

Hahaha! I love all the orange foods too!
