If you have leftover pumpkin puree you can make Omelette with pumpkin. It’s easy and requires fewer eggs than a regular omelet. Also, this omelette I like better than one made with fresh pumpkin.
Love salty breakfast and Pumpkin Omelette isn’t exception :). Without further ado, recipe below!
Pumpkin Omellete
This recipe requires one quarter cup of pumpkin puree
Ingredients
- half of the red bell pepper
- a small piece of leek
- 2 cloves garlic
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- Parmesan
- salt, pepper
Directions
- Cut veggies and mince garlic. Grind parmesan and set aside.
- Oil and heat a frying pan. Stir-fry veggies and garlic until cooked. Season with salt and pepper.
- In a bowl beat eggs and pumpkin puree until combined.
- Gently push cooked portions from edges toward the center so that uncooked eggs can reach the hot pan surface. Continue when no liquid eggs remain.
- Sprinkle with Parmesan. Fold the omelet in half. Serve.

Cooking with pumpkin would be something new for me and now we will not find them in the UK, not locally here anyway. I made your pumpkin and lentil soup which was tasty, but didn’t know then to make pumpkin puree with the rest. Might have to wait till next Halloween to make this.

Sounds delicious but I do not think I can get the Hubby to try this one. He only eats pumpkin in pie and then only during October, November and December….his definition of pumpkin season. He’s a weirdo but I love him. So, I’ll have to try this recipe on my friends.

Just don’t say there is pumpkin in it 🙂

He would know. Every time I try something with any winter squash he rejects it after one bite. He’s just not a fan of savory winter squash dishes so I have to cook that when I am willing to make a different meal for Hubby or when he’s not home for dinner.😊

I see! But this is so easy, make two omelettes. One with and one without and give one with first 😀
