This is amazing!!! The cucumber salsa tops it off nicely...I added some Greek Yogurt...my only issue, how many servings per recipe?
Thanks for a great pumpkin recipe!

I accidentally set the oven to 400F, and the dish was done baking in 45 minutes. Yay!
This was an absolutely delicious recipe!! I used cayenne pepper instead of the new mexican chili and had a good spicy kick to it.
Fabulous!! I placed the stew in three small pie pumpkins to make individual servings. I placed the finished pumpkins on plates, and we ate the stew directly out of the pumpkins.
This was wonderful - made it in a red kuri squash. Delicious, especially with the cucumber salsa!
This looks ans sounds great, can't wait to try it.
This is a no-fail, super delicious dish. I have had many positive comments from guests that I have served this to. I continue to make this recipe over and over, as it is so scrumptious. I don't even make the salsa as the pumpkin stew, is so great on its own.
this is a amazing recipe. hearty and scrumptious. so good i make it at least once a month during the fall and early winter. the only thing is that the serving size will inevitably vary according to the squash and size chosen. i will never lose this recipe!
One of my most favorite fall recipes. Can't wait for it to be pumpkin season again.
Just omit the cheese to make it vegan. Its just as good!
This does not feed 6. I doubled for 11. Saw the amount and added 3 15 oz cans of tomatoes and two of small red beans. Still barely had enough. It is delicious but even with the pumpkin scooped from the sides of the "container" the serving size is misleading.
The stew on it's own is very good - but even better when served in a pumpkin and topped w/the avocado salsa! That really transformed the dish. I added a carrot and a few tomatoes as well - I had to add a whole cup of water to the stew and it was still slightly dry, but cooked very nicely in the pumpkin. I also added a spoonful of greek yogurt on top of the avocado - and it really brought out the flavors! Great dish - so festive too!
What Linda said. But it WAS delicious! Next time I will use a kabocha squash, or another dense, dryer and orange squash. My pumpkin was disappointingly stringy and pale. GREAT soup though!
My family and friends love this recipe. We make it every year as part of our fall festival: Halloweeen, Day of the Dead, and Samhain. Keep up the great veggie recipes
This is a go-to recipe for me. I love it. I have made my own modifications along the way, for example leaving out the tomatillos and replacing the hominy for quinoa. Love it topped with avocado. I have made this time and time again fro guests and they always want the recipe.
THis is a terrific recipe especially paired with the with the avocado cucumber salsa. I agree with Linda in that there is no way this feeds 6. I used a 3.2 lb squash and we could serve 3 with it along with rice and beans. That being said, it is one of the best things I have made in a long time and will definetly make it again!. THanks VT.
Thought this was delicious, but I think it serves 3, not 4 people. Also, I would have called it stew instead of spicy.
