Hey guys! Nice to meet you! I'm here thanks to Angela and the collaboration! I'm blown away at how much you made out of those pumpkins!! You guys seem like you make a great team! Thanks for sharing with us all!
I cut them in slices, dehydrate,then grind into flour, we clean them- rub them inside with olive oil and sea salt,then stuff them with seasoned Hamburg,onions,potatoes,cabbage,celery- bake for 1 hour for a complete meal. Then we cut rinds off ,scoop meat out and puree it in chicken stock for a soup Put slices in a pie pan ,add maple flavoring,cream,raw sugar with grated cinnamon and bake for 45 minutes. We also feed the rinds to our chickens with greens And of course we also make pumpkin pie,cake,bread,and cookies
Okay you guys are amazing!!! I can't believe how much you showed us so quickly! The pumpkins are gorgeous!!! I want to get learn all of these different things to freeze dry and how to use! The cheesecake bites.....ummmm yum! Those trays look like it made light work?!? I love cream cheese, pumpkin and powdered sugar mixed. Oh and cause Momma would love, maybe swirl in some chocolate ❤😂
Hi Providents...hope all is well my hack...i love pickles...never throw pickle 🥒 juice out...buy fresh cucumbers 🥒 cucumbers 🥒 wah thoroughly hot water slice and put them in the juice rhey are the freshest omgoodness wonderful pickles....enjoy
I love that you don't waste anything from your volunteer pumpkins. What a blessing to have all of those pumpkins come up. My chickens would eat every one. I am hoping to get a freeze dryer this year so I can preserve more. Right now I just puree and freeze. It was so hot last year that the ONE volunteer pumpkin I did have come up, roasted outside. TFS!
My daughter and a couple of friends make pumpkin rolls for Thanksgiving and Christmas, One year there was no canned pumpkins around our area - freeze frying will make their lives a lot easier!! And who does not like pumpkin seeds!!
I started watching your channel while on a mission with my wife in Sweden. I have learned so much from you. This video on freeze drying pumpkin is very fascinating! We purchased our freeze dryer just before we left on our mission and now that we are back,I can't wait to try your tips
So excited that you are part of Freeze Dried February. I love pumpkin too and think all of your pumpkin recipes look great. Learned a lot, as usual, watching your video. 😊
I recently pressure canned pumpkin for the first time. Your video has given me some ideas for the next time I need to preserve pumpkin. I especially love the way you prepared the puree to add to dog food. Such a great way to give our pup extra nutrition.
I also LOVE pumpkin! I had never considered using the pieces nd parts to create puppy pumpkin treats. For sure on this year's list of preserving. I love to add pumpkin to my oatmeal cookies with dried cranberries, pecans and orange zest. Thank you for this video and all your uses for 0 waste pumpkin preserving. Thank you to Angela and the sponsors for Freeze Dried February.
I'm still evaluating my circumstances, but i love freeze dryed fruit! Thanks for all these ideas and showing how to prep seed for saving and eating! ❤ No waste!
What awesome things that you did with your freeze dried pumpkins! It’s great that you made doggy treats with the pumpkin discard/ waste. Once again, AWESOME IDEAS guys! 😊
You are FANTASTIC! I ❤ your channel. Keep growing those accidental pumpkins and so happy to see you in Freezedryer February. This video gave so many ideas.
Oooohhh.. pumpkin muffins, pumpkin bread,pumpkin cookies, pumpkin in my oatmeal! Thank you for sharing your “pumpkin experience”! And those pumpkin seeds! 👌
I came here for freeze dried February and found so many interesting videos I ended up subscribing. I’ve already watched your videos on extending the shelf life of brown rice and Aloo Palak, and there are several more I want to watch tonight. I’m glad I found your channel.
This was so interesting. I really liked that you put the pumpkin seeds in hot water before baking and said they were so much better. I will have to try this. Thank you for sharing.
You guys make excellent videos and I LOVE how you showed all the ways to take advantage of a "volunteer" crop and waste nothing. We had the same thing happen in our compost pile last summer with Butternut Squash. WHAT a blessing! We got 20 beautiful squash, so we had enough to cure, can, blanch, and freeze, as well as share with family.
Oh my goodness! I am so excited for all these recipes. I’m getting my first freeze dryer in a couple months and I’m planting pumpkins for the first time.
Great video. You are so creative with the scraps. What a great treat for the fur babies. I want to try your way of roasting the seeds. My favorite...everything pumpkin! Thanks 😊
Love all the ways you gave us for preservation of those pumpkins. This collab has made me a believer in the freeze dryers. I use to think they were so overpriced, but the ease of preserving really makes it a viable tool in our arsenal. I want one!
Saving the seed is a great way to make sure you have pumpkins in the future. I’m learning more about saving seeds too. I will look for the recipes for te treats, they look amazing, especially the cheesecake bites!!
Thank you!! You made me rethink growing pumpkins this year aaaaand another way a freeze dryer can be an asset to my family. My favorite pumpkin anything is a pumpkin roll. Never made one, but it is my favorite!
This was super inspiring. I recently discovered how great pumpkin is when a neighbor gave me one of their sugar pies. I saved the seed and am looking forward to growing them myself
Oh, this was definitely the video for me. I grew so many pumpkins this past season I was giving them away. I did preserve a lot of them, but I am so excited to try the cheesecake bites and the pumpkin pie bites. Thank you so much.💕
I make all my cat and dog's food and treats. I can't wait till I can get one of the freeze dryers. This will help me to be able to keep their foods and treats for long term. OOOOH I am so excited and am taking massive notes on my future food preservation. Thank you for sharing.
Thank You for such a awesome Freeze Dried Lesson. I love how you show so many things to do with freeze dried pumpkins and such awesome recipes. Such a great examples....Thank you for sharing
My favorite pumpkin food is pumpkin bread with raisins. My kids love it without the raisins. I clean out the pumpkin and bake it, then puree the pulp and freeze it, 1 cup to a bag and use it all year long. I don't have a freeze dryer. ❤️👍🇺🇲
I had surprise butternut squash grow, thanks to our chickens. Covered our whole back yard. But we did have squash 😅. I also seen another TH-cam channel make pumpkin pie, ready to use. She freeze dried everything you goes in a pie, sealed it in jar all she did was add liquid and cooked it.
Kylene, you are super cute! Love seeing the two of you bounce off each other as you teach. I never thought of blending up the leftovers for the dogs. Great idea.
Thank You for participating in this year's #freezedriedfebruary, what a GREAT NO-Waste video. This is RIGHT up my alley... I am a no waste kitchen if at all possible! The boiling the seeds is a great hack, love it!
Kylene & Jonathan- so glad you joined this collaboration! You two are so fun to watch!! I love the pumpkin ideas. I freeze dry but had never considered freeze drying a pumpkin or gourd. Maybe grind some of the cooked pumpkin meat to make a pumpkin spice and add it to favorite beverages and foods. Yummy! Thank for the great idea!!
I haven’t done pumpkins.. but have done squash and oh my! I roast them, mash them, spread them on my trays and freeze dry them. Once they are done I blend it into a powder and then I have instant squash! We usually add a bit of butter and brown sugar or sometimes just salt and pepper. It’s the absolute best.. just spend some time prepping and then the rest of the year I don’t have to mess with cooking a big ole squash if I want some with dinner.
Thank you! Love the dog food supplement for their food. After making chicken bone broth I pull off everything left on the bones and freeze dry it for dog treats! They LOVE it
I've never been a fan of pumpkin until I had some white chocolate chip pumpkin cookies. They were amazing and won me over. Thank you for sharing the different ways of using/preserving pumpkins.
Love your channel ❤️ we are not that much of a pumpkin eating house so I will not be doing this. Store what you eat and eat what you store! Thanks for the video I know it will help so many😊
I am excited for this to be one of the things that I freeze dry when I start freeze drying. I think the pumpkin would taste better being rehydrated instead of canning it or freezing in the freezer. Thanks for showing us how to do this. !!
Awe, the pups enjoy the freeze dryer too! Also the convenience of not fighting the crowd in Autumn for pumpkin anything. Those cheesecake bites look so good!
Thank You for sharing all the possibilities on freeze drying pumpkin, I don't have a freeze dryer yet but saving for one, and with freezedriedfebruary I am learning.
We are also on a "no waste" kick around our house. Ask me how I use a rotisserie chicken! LOL We use dried pumpkin in our home-made dog food too. Thank you for the fun video.

I absolutely loved all the ways you used the whole pumpkin. I have never grown pumpkins, but this year I will! Thanks to you both for the inspiration.
I have owned my FD for 1 year and love the products it produces. I have been coveting the Avid Armor ever since. Wish me luck!

Thank you, thank you for putting this collaboration together!
I love all the usual pumpkin items, in addition; I like coconut curry pumpkin soup, pumpkin butter cake, and pumpkin oatmeal breakfast cookies.
I would love your recipe for coconut pumpkin soup! That sounds awesome!
I loved the idea of making pet food from the peels. Our dogs would love that! No waste is wonderful! Thank you for sharing your ideas!
I love anything pumpkin.
Way to go with your appreciation of pumpkins! I love the no waste theory. Mr. Baa Humbug will love the pumpkin cheesecake bites.
Thank you Provident pepper. We love pumpkins and so many things to do with them. Wow
Such a good way to use all the pumpkin.

Thank you!! You made me rethink growing pumpkins this year aaaaand another way a freeze dryer can be an asset to my family. My favorite pumpkin anything is a pumpkin roll. Never made one, but it is my favorite!
I think that you could even substitute lots of other 9:50 different winter squash for all of these ideas. So exciting. 😊 thanks for the great video
The pumpkin for the pups and boiling the seeds are awesome! Definitely trying those this year with our pumpkins!
I have been afraid to plant pumpkins because I didn’t know if I could process them but I see know. I can do this! Thank you.
This is great!! We love to make use of everything and this was very neat to see how you processed your pumpkins! Thank you for sharing! 😊❤

What a great use of pumpkin! Especially for the dogs. Dogs love frozen pumpkin and its sooo good for them.

That's a great solution! I was actually going to mention that and then I forgot. You can freeze most of this stuff too!
Meeting you on MARCH 6th for the drawings! Woohoo!
I love the idea of treats for dogs. Pumpkin is so good for them.
What a great idea for the seeds and the skins! TY!

Thank you for sharing the different ways of using/preserving pumpkins.
Oh I would like to try those!
Thanks for showing how to use the entire pumpkin.
Amazing use of all your pumpkins. Great ideas, I do dehydrate mine and make pumpkin powder for my 🐕. They love it! 😊 Thank you for sharing.
I love using freeze dried pumpkin for quick bread.
This a great collaboration! Thank you for you contribution.
Love your channel ❤️ we are not that much of a pumpkin eating house so I will not be doing this. Store what you eat and eat what you store! Thanks for the video I know it will help so many😊
I absolutely love the idea of using “all the rest” for dog treats or toppers!! I want to try the pumpkin seeds too ❤
Love everything pumpkin! I always roast my pumpkin seeds, but never thought about everything bagel seasoning.❤
I am excited for this to be one of the things that I freeze dry when I start freeze drying. I think the pumpkin would taste better being rehydrated instead of canning it or freezing in the freezer. Thanks for showing us how to do this. !!
i love seeing all the different freeze drying options.
So many different recipes! I love it. I would love to do seed saving. The pumpkin for you puppy is wonderful! Thank you!
Absolutely no waste! I love this! Treats, snacks, staples, great pantry diversity! Thank you!
I am so excited! I love pumpkins, I can them, dehydrate and freeze dry! Now I need silicone tray thank you so much
I love pumpkin in many forms. Thanks for all of these great ideas.
I tried growing pumpkins once, ended up with gourds. Ill try your over the fence technique. Seriously, thanks for all the great ideas! Well done.😊
I never thought of pumpkin in so many ways. Thank you. I love pumpkin cinnamon rolls
Thank you! We’re considering buying a freeze dryer and really appreciate seeing what others are doing with theirs.
Awe, the pups enjoy the freeze dryer too! Also the convenience of not fighting the crowd in Autumn for pumpkin anything. Those cheesecake bites look so good!
The cheesecake bites sound AMAZING! I love anything pumpkin, but cheesecake is the best!
Just beginning my freeze dying journey. Thank you for sharing this video
The pumpkin for puppies is reason enough for me! Thanks for this great idea!
Awesome ideas for freeze drying pumpkins & zero waste! I love it!❤️
Thanks so much! 😊
How creative with the pumpkins. Specially the puppy treats. Loved it.
Thanks so much! 😊
These are all great ideas. I would never have thought of all of them.
That is a lot of pumpkin! Thanks for the tip on pumpkins seeds and the chocolate- pumpkin combination!
Pumpkin freeze dried is great
Everything you made sounds fantastic. I make a pumpkin cheesecake for Thanksgiving and everyone looks forward to it every year.
We love pumpkins and winter squash. I can't wait to try some of these options.
I never realized how much I was wasting until I started preserving our homegrown harvests :)
Wow, lot of different ideas for pumpkins! Thanks for ideas.
Love the pumpkin ideas for freeze drying!
Wow!! So many options! Thank you for participating 😊
You are so welcome!
No waste that's great. I have to start freeze drying more. I do love it. Thanks for sharing.
You guys are so fun to watch. Thanks for the great pumpkin ideas.
I did the same thing with my pumpkins. Now I have 2 quarts of pumpkin powder for upcoming pumpkin soup dinners.
Thank You for sharing all the possibilities on freeze drying pumpkin, I don't have a freeze dryer yet but saving for one, and with freezedriedfebruary I am learning.
Until then ... you can use your freezer to preserve much of these short term :)
Thank you for a fun video with so many ideas to use pumpkin! I was gifted the small pie pumpkins years ago and they didn't need sugar.
We are also on a "no waste" kick around our house. Ask me how I use a rotisserie chicken! LOL We use dried pumpkin in our home-made dog food too. Thank you for the fun video.
How do you use a rotisserie chicken? I'd love to know :)
