Buy Pie Pumpkins to Make Pumpkin Puree

Pie pumpkin

While shopping at Kroger I came across a display of pie pumpkins and it reminded me that I needed to make pumpkin puree. Pie pumpkins are only $0.99 right now at Kroger! This is a great time to make your own pumpkin puree and stock your freezer. The last time I made homemade pumpkin puree from a pie pumpkin, it yielded about 4 cups. So at $0.99 a pumpkin, making homemade pumpkin puree is much more cost effective than buying canned pumpkin!

Plus these smaller pumpkins make great decorations! Use them to decorate now, and then bake them into pumpkin puree later!
