Pumpkin Pot Pie

Now that pumpkins are officially out of season, I figure this would be the perfect time to post about them. We're not craving Starbucks Pumpkin Spice anymore, but now that you read that, you're kinda thinking about it, right? Like, "wait, am I craving it?" No, you're not. It's almost Easter, you guys. Just enjoy the post and remember it 8 months from now.
Also, this is one of the best recipes ever. And requires minimal dishes.

From what I remember, you'll need:

  • 1 carved baking pumpkin
  • chopped chicken breast
  • corn
  • chopped celery
  • peas
  • 1 can cream of broccoli or potato
  • lots of melting cheese
  • season to taste
We sprinkled cinnamon, salt and pepper in the inside of the carved pumpkin then filled it with all the goodies. Baked it at probably 350 for an hour or so. The pumpkin and the chicken need to fully cook. When it's done, the pumpkin won't be as sturdy as it was when it went in. That's a good thing, just be careful.

Enjoy!
