Dinner in a Pumpkin

With Halloween coming up, I thought I'd share "Dinner in a Pumpkin". I got the recipe from my Aunt Margie and it has been our traditional Halloween dinner ever since. Enjoy!




1 medium 10-12" pumpkin

1/2 lb. hamburger

1 small onion- chopped

1 clove garlic- minced

1 small green pepper

1 can (14 oz.) kidney beans, drained

1 can (11 0z.) corn, drained

1/4 cup olives, chopped

1 can (8 oz.) stewed tomatoes

1 can (8 oz.) tomato sauce

2 tsp. oregano

1 tsp. basil

1/4 tsp. cumin

1 tsp. pepper



Fry hamburger, saute onion, garlic and green pepper with hamburger. Combine all ingredients together and add to cleaned out pumpkins. Put lid on top. Cook until lid starts to fall in.



Bake at 350 degrees for 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
