PUMPKIN STEW
This special stew is the meal our two kids look forward to each fall because we only get to enjoy it when the fresh pumpkins come out of the garden. The stew is cooked and served right in the pumpkin shell. A true taste of autumn, it also makes a pretty presentation at a potluck. -Donna Mosher, Augusta, Montana

JACK O'LANTERN STEW
I first had this dinner 42 years ago when I went to my first Halloween Party. It was originally called Grandma's Stuff in a Pumpkin, but that doesn't sound very scary. When my own kids started having Halloween parties, I began making this for them, with a little tweaking. I have also bought small pumpkins and made individual servings for each child at the party, it doesn't take that much longer to do, and the kids loved drawing the faces on their pumpkins and watched while I did the carving. My oldest son is now 21, and starting a cooking career - last October he called me and begged for this recipe. This is now a 3rd generation favorite- and who knows- may be passed onto more.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Cut the top off the pumpkin and scoop out the insides. Rinse well. Carve a spooky face onto the pumpkin, without going all the way through the flesh. Rinse well, oil outside of pumpkin. Bake the pumpkin shell for 30 minutes.
- While shell is baking: saute the onion, green and red peppers, carrots, celery, and garlic until the vegetables begin to soften, about 8 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside. Brown ground beef and chicken. Add the veggies and cooked rice and cook over low heat, stirring often, for 10 to 15 minutes to let the flavors meld.
- Remove pumpkin from oven and let stand 15 minutes. Stir the tomatoes and soup into the meat mixture. Place meat mixture into pumpkin. Put back in oven for 20 minutes. Serve on a platter with cheesy biscuits- -very yummy.
MEXICALI BEEF STEW IN PUMPKIN SHELL
I used to love this recipe. I found it on one of those little cards that the grocery store keeps in racks in the entryway. But, my tastes have changed and matured, so it's NOT a favorite anymore, but it has tremendous nostalgia value AND the pumpkin shell idea is priceless. Once, we took this to our friend's house for dinner (the pumpkin makes travel INCREDIBLY easy), and the kids were amazed that we'd get to eat out of a pumpkin. And, something to note for other recipes -- if done properly, the pumpkin will insulate the food for HOURS.

Taste of Home. Beautiful presentation. Excellent for fall celebrations. I usually add bay leaf and dried thyme or marjoram to the stew. You can add whatever spices/herbs you prefer.

ARGENTINE BEEF STEW IN A PUMPKIN (CARBONADA EN ZAPALLO)
From Sasha Martin, Globaltableadventure.com, a truly amazing blog: "Carbonada en Zapallo is a traditional Christmas dish in Argentina, it also makes a wonderful dish for Halloween or Thanksgiving potlucks. It's best to bake the pumpkin on something you can use for serving because trying to lift a softened pumpkin full of soup ... well, let's just say it begs to crack in half and spill everywhere. If this is not an option, roast the pumpkin on a baking sheet until well browned - about an hour and fifteen minutes, remove to serving platter and fill with completely cooked soup right before serving."

Steps:
- Prepare the pumpkin:.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Meanwhile, Cut the top off the pumpkin. If you are able to get a large one, you can cut it about 1/3 of the way down so that it is wide but shallow. Remove the strings and seeds - use a paring knife to cut smooth the top four inches of the inner edge for presentation. Brush the cut edges with vegetable oil. Roast the oven for about 45 minutes.
- For the soup:.
- Add about 2 tablespoons vegetable oil to a large pot over high heat. Add the beef, stirring a couple of times to ensure even browning. If there is excess liquid, it will need to boil off before the meat begins browning.
- Reduce the heat, then add the onions and garlic. Once translucent, add the peppers and continue cooking for about five minutes. Add the potatoes, tomatoes, corn, apricot, oregano, and bay leaves. Cover with 8 cups of broth.
- Simmer gently until the vegetables are just tender - about 30 minutes. Season to taste. Ladle into the pumpkin in the oven and bake 30 more minutes to finish cooking . Serve hot, spooning some of the pumpkin flesh into each bowl along with the soup.

COMFORTING BARLEY & PUMPKIN BEEF STEW
There's nothing more comforting than a bowl of beef stew-unless, of course, it's a bowl of steaming hot beef stew loaded with lots and lots of barley. Now this is comfort food at its best-a bowl of stew robust enough to be a meal on its own. Rinsing the barley will help remove any dust, dirt or debris. -Colleen Delawder, Herndon, Virginia
