Going to a holiday party and looking for a dip to take? If you have a leftover can of pumpkin puree from Thanksgiving, here’s a simple recipe worth opening the can for.
•
A 15-ounce can contains almost 1 3/4 cups of pumpkin, so you’ll have about 1 1/4 cups of pumpkin left over. Most quick bread recipes call for 1 cup of pumpkin, so plan on making a bread, too.
•
Serve this barely sweet dip with toast points or crackers, or use it as a spread on turkey sandwiches.
