Pumpkin week in spring!

I figure everyone else in the blogosphere goes gaga for pumpkin in the fall, so why not do a pumpkin week in spring? I have a bunch of one-serving recipes I’d like to make that all require minimal amounts of pumpkin, so I will make them until I empty out the can of pumpkin I opened. This may or may not take more than a week though:)
First up? Savory Pumpkin Grilled Cheese! I got this recipe from Hungry Girl. I only changed the cheese mixed with the pumpkin-I used a couple of tablespoons of reduced-fat cream cheese. Normally I am not too much of a sandwich person unless it is a grilled cheese loaded with butter or an open-face sandwich. I feel like the bread in most sandwiches hides the taste of what is inside. I always end up deconstructing them. This one had such a thick, moist filling that it worked out decently. It was a pretty tasty savory application of pumpkin.
Pumpkin week. It’s like shark week. Except it is not on tv. And its about food. Although a shark is a fish and I suppose some people eat it so perhaps pumpkin week is not so removed…okay I will stop my babbling. Feast your eyes on this, then feast on some pumpkin-y goodness:

I’M ADDING IN THE RECIPE HERE IN…THE FUTURE!
It is June 1st, 2013 and I decided I should type in some recipes I’d only linked to.
Pumpkin Grilled Cheese adapted from the Hungry Girl site
nonstick spray
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup canned pumpkin
2 Tbsp. reduced-fat cream cheese
2 dashes cayenne pepper
dash of freshly ground black pepper
2 slices of whole wheat bread
2 tsp. Smart Balance light
1 slice of cheddar
Spray a skillet with nonstick stuff and sauté the onion until lightly browned. Mix it with pumpkin, cream cheese, cayenne, and pepper. Butter the bread. On non-buttered side of one piece, spread the onion-pumpkin-cheese mix. Top with the cheddar. Top with other piece of bread, buttered side up.
Respray your skillet and cook your sandwich a couple minutes on each side until as toasty as you are in the mood to get.
