Where are all my Fall recipe lovers out there,Momma Dawn here with Dinner in a pumpkin. We are about to get our first cold snap here in Florida, and we have been waiting a long time to feel some fall air, so what is better than ushering fall in than with a warm comforting fall meal. Its simply called Dawnies Dinner In A Pumpkin. We let the little kids clean out a medium pumpkin,maybe Momma April will share with yall her favorite pumpkin seed recipe later on. It all starts with a pumpkin. So ingredients are: A pumpkin ground beef or pork,or chicken, whatever you wanna use,I used 2 lbs of it. 2 ybs veg oil 1 med onion 2 tbs soy sauce 1/2 c brown sugar 1 can of cut mushrooms(optional) 1 larg can or 3 small cans of cream of chicken soup 1-2 cups of rice(add more or less,depending on how much you want). 2 tsp cinnamon 2 tsp apple pie spice. Ok so you cut the top of of your pumpkin kinda like your making a jack o lantern, you need to scoop all his guts out,we let the kids get into this,and they loved it. Once the pumpkin is cleaned out, I like to rub the pumpkin with 1 tsp of apple pie spice, and 1 tsp of cinnamon. Set the pumpkin aside,Now your going to multi task and make 1-2 cups of rice,set that aside when done, drained. Then saute 1 onion in the veg oil. until tender. Add the meat and brown it..When its brown, your gonna then drain the grease from that. Turn oven onto 350 degrees here. Add shrooms,brown sugar,and soy sauce,let simmer about 5-10 min. Then your going to add the cooked rice in the meat mixture,stir Then add the cream of chicken soup. Here you can add the other tsp of the spices,and mix. Spoon into pumpkin,be careful,its kinda hot!Replace lid. Place pumpkin on a sheet or tray,and put him in the oven for about an hour. The pumpkin should look a little like hes kinda melting. Take out the pumpkin, spoon into bowl, for your veggie be sure to scrape the pumpkin into your meal. Add some bread,and you got one warm belly filler.
