I would like some pumpkin based recipie ideas

Answer 1

buy the little small pumpkins as many as you will have guests and cut the top off straight across as saving for a lid...now scoop out the pumpkin inside and use the meat to make the pumpkin soup of your choosing...when ready to serve use the little pumpkins as bowls and cover with tops as lids......i have even made with non washable magic marker pumpkin faces o them....they go over great with your guests....
