    Here’s a pumpkin side dish that you can serve at a holiday dinner. This recipe can be halved for a smaller family meal. Once again my non-pumpkin eating sweetie gave this a thumbs-up too! TIP: Add chopped ham or chicken and perhaps broccoli to make this a dinner casserole.

    Ingredients

    • 16 oz box elbow macaroni
    • 2 cups canned pumpkin
    • 2 cups buttermilk
    • 1 8 oz package cream cheese
    • 3 cups grateded cheddar cheese
    • 1 cup grateded Swiss cheese
    • 1 teaspoon salt
    • ½ teaspoon nutmeg
    • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

    Directions

    1. Cook macaroni in salted water and drain.
    2. In a saucepan over medium heat blend cream cheese, pumpkin and buttermilk until smooth.
    3. Mix together grated cheeses in a bowl and reserve 1 cup.
    4. Add remaining cheeses and seasonings to saucepan. Stir until well blended.
    5. Remove saucepan from heat and stir in macaroni.
    6. Pour into a greased 9×13 pan and top with the reserved cheeses.
    7. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
