It is Pumpkin time once again. What most people seem to forget about the pumpkin is that it is not just a Jack-O-Lantern. A friend of mine never used canned pumpkin, she always quartered a fresh pumpkin and cooked it down until it was mushy.
I tried doing it her way with a slow cooker, and it was all right, but give me a can any day! Why go through all that work yourself, when someone else has done it for you. Anyway here is a great recipe for pumpkin other than pie.
