Pumpkin

So, I got a free pumpkin. I decided to go ahead and cook it so I could use it for something. Here's the process.....

Raw - waiting to go in the oven (after getting covered with foil)
Cooked
Pureed
and bagged - 8 cups to be exact (and enough leftover to see if Jaden likes pumpkin tomorrow).


My only question.....NOW WHAT??????
I'm thinking of trying to make Pumpkin Empanadas.
Any suggestions????? We're tired of pumpkin pie.

    Maybe you should make a savory pumpkin soup?

    For Thanksgiving I had an awesome pumpkin cheesecake that Brian's cousin made. I am sure I could get you the recipe if you wanted to try that.
