It&#8217;s easy to cook pumpkin in the oven. Just cut the pumpkin in half, scrape the center clean of seeds and strings, and bake the pumpkin on a cookie sheet until it&#8217;s tender. A big pumpkin will need up to an hour and a half in the oven at 325 to 350 degrees. When the pumpkin is done, let it cool. Then scrape the pumpkin out with spoon, leaving the empty pumpkin shell (and the seeds and strings) for the chickens.<\/p>\n<p>Pumpkin is just too cheap and too nutritious not to use when it&#8217;s in season. It&#8217;s good for many things other than pies. Search the web, and you&#8217;ll get lots of ideas for recipes.<\/p>\n<p><a href='http:\/\/acornabbey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/e-pumpkin-cooking-2020-1.JPG' title='e-pumpkin-cooking-2020-1.JPG'><img src='http:\/\/acornabbey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/e-pumpkin-cooking-2020-1.JPG' alt='e-pumpkin-cooking-2020-1.JPG' \/><\/a><br \/>\n<em>The pumpkin just came out of the oven.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href='http:\/\/acornabbey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/e-pumpkin-cooking-2020-4.JPG' title='e-pumpkin-cooking-2020-4.JPG'><img src='http:\/\/acornabbey.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/e-pumpkin-cooking-2020-4.JPG' alt='e-pumpkin-cooking-2020-4.JPG' \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pumpkin curry I am shocked how many people tell me that they buy only canned pumpkin and never cook pumpkin fresh.
