PUMPKIN STEW
This special stew is the meal our two kids look forward to each fall because we only get to enjoy it when the fresh pumpkins come out of the garden. The stew is cooked and served right in the pumpkin shell. A true taste of autumn, it also makes a pretty presentation at a potluck. -Donna Mosher, Augusta, Montana

[email protected]I followed the recipe exactly and the stew turned out terrible. The pumpkin was mushy and the lentils were undercooked. I would not recommend this recipe.
