BALSAMIC-ROASTED PUMPKIN WITH GOAT CHEESE
I had an overabundance of pumpkin grow in my garden this year, and wanted to try something different from the usual sweet pumpkin recipes--this was the end result. It's a great side dish to any protein, or even a great addition to a salad. Make sure to be very careful when cutting your pumpkin--use a sharp knife, and keep the pumpkin from rolling around when slicing.
