Directions
Baked Pumpkins with Wild Rice Stuffing,Perfect for a vegetarian or vegan Thanksgiving,This was good fun to make! I halved the recipe and it made plenty of dinner for my DH, 2 teens and myself… lots of leftovers! Since this was labor intensive, I’d probably wait and to serve it again when I have company. My DS thought it was very cool to eat dinner out a pumpkin! I subbed frozen carrots in place of the steamed carrots with no problem. Thanks!,Perfect for a vegetarian or vegan Thanksgiving
