One med pumpkin, peeled, seeded, and diced

1 med. onion, diced
2 celery stalks, sliced

Directions:

In a large pot combine all veggies and cover with water. Boil until pumpkin and potato are cooked and easily mashed.

Put back into the pot (if you used a regular blender) and add parsley. Serve with crusty bread.

Pumpkin Pudding

from the kitchen of Holly

I want to share this super simple recipe for pumpkin pudding...I use a can of already sweetened pumpkin pie filling, place some in a small dish/cup and put a dab of cool whip on top. Too easy, right?, but tasty if you are into pumpkin like I am.
