Ingredients:
1 medium pumpkin, remove top and clean insides out
1 1/2- 2 lbs of ground beef 1 cup chopped celery
1 onion, chopped
1/4 cup green onion, chopped
3 c. cooked rice
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 can cream of mushroom soup1/2 cup chopped or sliced mushrooms (omit if you aren't a mushroom fan)
3 tablespoons brown sugar
4 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons brown sugar
4 tablespoons soy sauce
salt and pepper
Brown hamburger. In another pot, cook rice (white or brown) as directed on package. Chop and saute celery, onion, and green onion. Once tender combine vegetables with hamburger, cream of chicken, cream of mushroom, mushrooms, brown sugar, soy and salt and pepper. Mix well.
Put mixture inside the pumpkin, replace lid. Place on baking sheet and into a 400 degree oven. Bake until pumpkin is tender (1 1/2 to 2 hours). Scoop out to serve, scraping sides of pumpkin to get the cooked pumpkin in the mixture. It is so good it melts in your mouth!

Very original. What a perfect way to serve it. I've never heard of doing this before and bet it is delicious.
Very cool using the pumpkin and don't forget to bake those seeds for a snack.
Plan B
Ahhh I want to make this so bad!!! It would be hard to choose a pumpkin the right size to fit in my old old OLD oven though.... maybe I'll create a mini version.
Let me know if any of you try this recipe and what you think! I hope you like it!!
I'm going to make this on Sunday! Yeah! I am featuring Saturday at Somedaycrafts.blogspot.com. Grab my "featured" button.
This looks really good. Def. want to make it. Happy Halloween!
I made it today and it tasted great! I have to admit I was a little nervous, but it turned out super yummy and I loved the pumpking with the mixture! Thanks!
I do this same thing each halloween, but don't use onions, I use green bell peppers and add water chestnuts and almond slivers...oh yeah, and ground sausage for a spicy little kick--yum!
It doesn't mention what to do with the rice. do you put it into the mix or serve it over the rice?
It doesnt mention what to do with the rice. is it mixed in with everything or is it served on top of rice?
Hi Roseanne,
You will cook the rice as directed, and then mix with all the ingredients and bake it in the oven. Serve it with a side of cornbread and it is a great meal!
Thanks for the clarification...having it tonight.
This year I did half italian sausage/half hamburger...and added a little green pepper and almonds thanks to Kristen Duke's idea. Super good!!
