I must interrupt this regularly scheduled pumpkin post to pimp my acting. I had the joy of acting in this lil’ ditty:
Beware the Gluten Monster!
Now onto this recipe. Which is NOT free of The Dreaded Gluten.
Pumpkin balls?
Hell to the friggin’ yes.
This is Thanksgiving in a ball.
Pumpkin Balls adapted from the allrecipes app
Olive oil spray
1/4 c. Onion, chopped
1/2 tsp. minced garlic
1 tsp. dried sage
1 1/2 pieces wheat bread, toasted and crumbled
6 Tbsp. pumpkin purée
2 Tbsp. beaten egg
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
Heat the oven to 375 F. Spray a pot with olive oil and sauté the onion until soft and clear, then add garlic and sage and sauté a bit longer. Transfer to a bowl and stir in everything else. Shape into balls. Put them on a greased or Pam-ed baking sheet and bake until firm, around 15 minutes.
“Gluten is such an Asshole!” – Haha!
It’s funny because I’ve been asked “what diet am I on or like what do I eat” sometimes. I just stare at those people until they back off… Kind of annoying that people are labelled by what they eat.
I think the whole gluten thing is blown way out of proportion. Sure, there’re some people that are allergic to it but there’re people allergic to nuts yet they’re still considered a health food!
Lol! More people should see your video 😛
Yeah, they should! Thank you so much for watching it-feel free to put it on your blog if you think it is relevant. My super-talented friend Iselle (the one character who just “eats sensibly”)wrote and directed it and we are trying to get some attention for it, and for her work… I like your tactic if just staring off people who want to judge your eating style, haha. I think maybe I will try it! Sent from my iPhone
I will definitely share your video on my blog 😉
I’ve thought of another tactic 😛 If someone asks me what I eat I’ll start talking about what I feed my lab bacteria.
Yes… I like some LB media. Hmmm yeast extract, peptone, salt and a nice side of antibiotics. Yum!
Ooooh, yeah! Nothing like a good peptone;)
