Pumpkin volcano for dinner

AIPGluten-freeFODMAPLow carbPaleoDinner

Have a pumpkin? Make a volcano for dinner! It is really easy to make, full of flavour and spectacular looking.

Choose a fatty cut of pork for this, for example pork neck. Turmeric is soluble in fat and therefore its absorption is increased with this recipe. Add some black pepper if you want to increase turmeric bioavailability.
