Dinner in a Pumpkin

1- medium sized pumpkin, cleaned (you can leave a little stringy stuff)
1 lb ground beef
1 onion, chopped
2 T soy sauce
2 T brown sugar
1 container of fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 c. cream of chicken
1-1/2 c. rice, cooked
1 can of sliced water chestnuts, drained

Pre-heat oven to 400. Place prepared pumpkin on a baking sheet. Cook pumpkin for 30 min. or until it is semi-soft (this will vary depending on thickness of pumpkin).
Meanwhile:
Cook ground beef adding onions and mushrooms until both are wilted. Add soy sauce, brown sugar, cream of chicken, cooked rice and water chestnuts. Combine well. Place ingredients in partially cooked pumpkin. Bake for 30-40 min (until the insides are warm) at 400. Serve directly from pumpkin and enjoy a festive meal.
