Don't even ask why I have canned pumpkin on hand but I am going to make this tonight...

btw ... fresh organic pumpkin (not the ones they carve) baked instead of boiled and then allowed to drain is not too mushy.

PZed that is why you can only use canned pumpkin ... you must listen to the hard aize ppl sometimes ... mi never use jackolantern pumpkin yet fi cook. And I do use the canned (just not libby's)

Let me introduce pie pumpkins aka blue hubbard squash.
These are smaller and smoother than jack-o-lantern pumpkins and taste much better. Pie pumpkins are closer to the size of a small melon, like a honeydew.

Speaking of pumpkins ... I made stuffed mini-pumpkins one year for a Thanksgiving dinner. It was a hit. Found this picture via Google
