In this culinary adventure, we present you with a symphony of flavors and textures, where the vibrant colors of autumn vegetables dance harmoniously with the rustic charm of a roasted pumpkin. Our journey begins with a symphony of roasted vegetables, each carefully selected for its unique character. Sweet and earthy butternut squash, tender and flavorful Brussels sprouts, vibrant orange carrots, and crisp green beans unite in a medley of roasted perfection.
The centerpiece of this dish is a majestic pumpkin, transformed into a culinary vessel through the magic of roasting. Its golden-brown exterior hints at the tender and succulent flesh within, ready to cradle the medley of roasted vegetables. The pumpkin's natural sweetness complements the savory flavors of the vegetables, creating a harmonious balance that will tantalize your taste buds.
For a touch of elegance, we introduce a creamy goat cheese sauce, its tangy and slightly tart flavor adding a layer of complexity to the dish. The sauce is artfully drizzled over the roasted vegetables and pumpkin, creating a visually appealing and delectable masterpiece.
As a delightful accompaniment, we offer a zesty and refreshing arugula salad, its peppery bite providing a delightful contrast to the roasted vegetables. The salad is dressed with a simple vinaigrette, allowing the natural flavors of the arugula to shine through.
Finally, for those who crave a touch of indulgence, we present a decadent pumpkin cake, its moist and fluffy texture a perfect ending to this autumnal feast. The cake is delicately spiced with cinnamon and nutmeg, evoking the warmth and coziness of the season.
Prepare to embark on a culinary journey that celebrates the bounty of the harvest, where each bite is a testament to the beauty and diversity of nature's gifts. Let your senses be captivated by the roasted harvest vegetables nestled in a baked pumpkin, accompanied by a creamy goat cheese sauce, a refreshing arugula salad, and a slice of indulgent pumpkin cake.
ROASTED PUMPKIN WITH ROOT VEGETABLES AND BROCCOLI
This is a great and hearty seasonal vegetable dish which can be used as a side dish or as an entire meal. The blend of seasoning adds a little spice and sweet. I came up with this recipe on a Sunday evening when I had 1 unused sweet potato, 1 unused redskin potato, and unused leftover pumpkin from the pumpkin butter recipe I found here on Allrecipes, which is great by the way. This recipe would make a great side dish for Thanksgiving.

ROASTED PUMPKIN
This recipe for basic roasted pumpkin is so simple and very versatile. You can eat the sweet, fibrous flesh straight out of the shell with some olive oil, salt, and pepper, or you can get creative. Once you've roasted the pumpkin as directed below, consider making Pumpkin Wedges with Sage or Indian-Spiced Pumpkin.
