#AKfood: roast meats + spicy treats

It's all pumpkins/yellow-leaves/spicy-treats/roasted meats on Alaska's food blogs lately. October eating.

All that is pumpkin has been brought to us lately by Alaska From Scratch's Maya Evoy. Her recent recipe scroll includes maple pumpkin breakfast quinoa and pumpkin french toast stuffed with orange cream cheese.

Game meat recipes are still making a strong showing. I'm bookmarking a moose meatball recipe from Kim Sunée in the Alaska Dispatch. And, Anchorage Food Mosaic featured a delicious-looking recipe from chef Rob Kineen for rolled elk meatloaf.

Also worth considering around dinner time: The News-Miner in Fairbanks offers a meditation on brussels sprouts (with recipes). Megan Ancheta, of Allergy Free Alaska, has a very serviceable looking roast beef. And for dessert, Nicole Pierce of Arctic Garden Studio brings us cinnamon-y maple snaps.
