Pumpkin --- It's Halloween - YEAH

DINNER IN A PUMPKIN - -- YEAH 

So, it is the time of year for Pumpkin---

Buy one from the store, make sure it is the right size for your family.

1 pumpkin

Make sure you have cut the lid with a notch, so you can put the lid back on.

Know for the filling:

1 lb. hamburger

1 small onion

1 cup cooked rice

1 can of cream of mushroom

1 TBS soy sauce

2 TBS brown sugar

Start by  clean out -- all the icky stuff out - we call it guts.  Then put a face on it with permanent ink, on the outside.

Then fry up the hamburger and the onion.  Add all the rest of the ingredients.

Put the filling in the pumpkin -  you can make 2 batches of filling if you need to, I used to put 3-4 batches of filling, when you have teenagers.

Put on a cookie sheet - covered in foil.  

Bake 350 degrees for 1 hour -  plus or minus 1/2 hour, depending on the size of the pumpkin.

When serving, put the pumpkin out and serve the filling, cut the pumpkin for each serving.  

This is a great activity to do with your kids.
