Ever since one of my clients told me about cooking a stew in a pumpkin, I have been wanting to try this.
It was super easy and turned out delicious!
There are a lot of different things you can put inside the pumpkin. Any type of stew would probably work. Perfect for fall weather... if we ever get it!

Here is what I did:
One small pumpkin
1 can organic red beans
1 can organic diced tomatoes
1/2 med onion, chopped
1 zucchini, cut lengthwise and chopped
1 tsp cumin, curry, garlic salt, italian seasonings
1/2 tsp nutmeg, cinnamon, red pepper
Preheat oven to 325. Cut off top of pumpkin and spoon out all the seeds. Combine the rest of the ingredients and place in the pumpkin. If you have left over filling, you can place it in a separate baking dish and cook along side the pumpkin.
Cover the pumpkin in foil in case it spills and place in a baking dish. Cook with the top off for about 2 hours. When serving, scrap the insides of the pumpkin and mix the flesh with the stew. Yummy!
