Cook it, don't chuck it.

Halloween is almost here, and if you're getting stuck in with some pumpkin carving this year, don't just get rid of that tasty veg! Pumpkin is a great low carb ingredient which can be using in loads of delicious and healthy recipes - from pies to cakes to soups and more. Teaming this seasonal vegetable with Lo-Dough helps to reduce your carbs further, whilst also enjoying some of your favourite autumnal flavours and dishes. 

Puréed goodness.

Pumpkin purée is quick and simple to make, and helps to reduce otherwise wasted food. All of the recipes below use a sweet or savoury twist on our low-carb pumpkin purée recipe. To find out how to make your own, check out our pumpkin puree blog.
