I like pumpkin myself and there are so many ways to prepare it.. Thanks for stopping by! Deb

Thank you Deb!! I have a weird obsession with pumpkin - I think I would only eat pumpkin pie-related things if I could. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I was at a pow wow last year and one man brought what he called 'stuffed pumpkins'
He had cooked cantaloupe sized all day in a crockpot, inside the pumpkins were all kinds of herbs and spices with lots of wild/brown rice. It was so0o0o0o good with chicken gravy that night =]

cantaloupe sized pumpkins....I'm having a stupid day today...too many sinus meds =[

yummy! That does sound SO good! I also love the pumpkin donuts this time of year. They are mildly spicey with a warm glaze and oh so yummy! But, alas, low carb won't allow them this year...BOO <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> I'll just have to depend on my memories! <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I understood perfectly what you meant by "cantaloupe sized", Wendy Tall One! but I understand the stupid days, too...LOL <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Hope your sinuses are feeling better!

Wendy, slow down on that stuff! It's poison! <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Sounds delicious, though. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I'm going to try to make the whole pumpkin with the spices baked inside.

Has anyone else tried that yet?

Ugh I know it's poison, I abhor taking anything that has to come from a pharmacy. But when it's between having a runny nose, massive headache and the sniffles at work all day I think I'd rather be a bit dopey.
On the bright side...I'm much better now =]

And I bet that pumpkin stuffed with all kinds of cinnamon and nutmeg served warm with some vanilla bean ice cream would be divine....

I'm glad you're better, Wendy. It's rainy here and I've had a whopper today. It is better now.

The pumpkin seeds sounds great! Thanks for the info and recipe, Deb! <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Hey Deb! Thanks for these awesome recipes! I have 4 kids who love pumpkin but one of them would eat it nonstop if I'd let him. They'll enjoy trying some of these.

Great job!

Hi everyone. I apologize for being absent for a while. My husband had an unexpected triple bypass (as if any bypass was expected) <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Anyway I got side tracked. I appreciate you all coming in. I love pumpkin too.. this time of year is wonderful for pumpkin stir fry, pumpkin chips, pumpkin everything lol.. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> We "Fall babies" enjoying the Fall harvest here..Anybody else have any good pumpkin recipes? That idea sounds so good Wendy! I may try that too.. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Deb
