Traditional Chinese congee is always one of my favorite dishes. Addition of pumpkin makes this dish even more suiting for when the weather is turning cold. Bonus little tip to let you make congee in an hour.

Super easy breakfast that you can make in less than 10mins. I had leftover pumpkins from our weekend lunch and just needed to mash them in with the oatmeal. You can use roasted pumpkins or microwave them (like I did) for 8 mins on medium (700W).
