Pork

Pumpkin Polenta with Italian Sausage and Pumpkin Ragu

October 13, 2024 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

At this time of year, pumpkin everything is everywhere. It’s a little overdone in my opinion.

I'm P.C. I think I am like most people. Somewhere in the middle between food snob and food schlub. Just being in the kitchen makes me happy. I live, mostly in my kitchen, in my hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
