Not just Jack-O-Lanterns

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

    1 pumpkin, with a flat bottom. Size it to how many people to serve.
    Rice, from 11/2 cups
    vegies of your choice, but peppers are a must
    apple cider vinager
    origano
    garlic
    onions
    hot sauce, tobasco or the like

Directions:

Cut the top from the pumkin, clean out the seeds and the stringy stuff.  Put the pumkin in a large pot, add 6 cups of water and boil until just starting to get tender. (about 1/2 hr) In the mean time, cook your rice, use what ever type of rice that you like.  Mix the rice with the veggies, I use the frozen mixed veggies add your spices, crushed garlic or salt, what ever you prefer. Dont forget the viniger and hot sauce.  Drain the pumpkin, stuff with the mixture, put  top back on and put in a shallow baking dish.  Leave in the oven for an hour at 425 for an hour, or until the pumpkin is soft, but still firm.  Put the pumpkin on a plate, and let your guests slice off a piece of dinner.

This meal looks very nice and tastes wonderful.  You can sit it on a bed of parsley to decorate.

Serves: 4-10

Preparation time: 1Hr to 11/2hrs.
