With the Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks coming out in August this year, you might think we were several weeks into Fall … but the temperatures here in Dallas are still telling me otherwise! That said, I’ve never been one to shy away from healthy pumpkin recipes (I eat pumpkin all year round!), and Fall does officially start on Saturday, so it’s a perfect time to share 20 of my all-time favorite healthy pumpkin recipes with you! I hope you enjoy!
