Pumpkin Stuffed with Everything Good: Simple Living and Eating

Oh my, again I made something different than my fellow Dorista's this week... but please forgive me. Everyone is making a wonderful Caramel Almond Custard Tart... but my daughter is allergic to nuts and my son is severally lactose intolerant. That would have left my husband and I to eat a rich tart with out any kid help, not good.

So, in keeping with the season I decided to make a recipe that was made before I joined this cooking group: Pumpkin Stuffed with Everything Good. The title is not kidding. You carve open a pumpkin and fill it with bread, cheese, bacon and cream. Then you put the cap back on it and bake it for two hours. The result is a cool looking, and delicious Autumn meal. I warn you it is rich. One 3 pound pumpkin easily feeds a family of 4.

Pumpkin before it is baked.

Note: on selecting your pumpkin. I originally bought a sugar pumpkin. They are know for their flavor, very good for cooking. But I forgot to knock on it to check that it was hallow. You need a hallow pumpkin, so you can stuff it... so make sure to knock first and you won't have to ask questions later.
