Stuffed Pumpkin
- 1 whole 2-3 Pound Medium Sugar Pumpkin
- 1 bulb Roasted Garlic
- Olive Oil, For Drizzling Over The Garlic
- 1 bag 16 Oz Frozen Broccoli
- 1 box 6.0 Oz Uncle Ben's Broccoli Rice Au Gratin
- 1/2 cups Sharp Cheddar Cheese, Shredded
- Preheat oven to 375F.
- Remove and reserve the top of the pumpkin. Scoop out seeds and stringy pulp. Using a paring knife poke the pumpkin skin a few times. Place pumpkin on a large baking sheet, and bake 1 hour in the preheated oven, or until pumpkin is tender. Let cool and peel off skin from the pumpkin. Place pumpkin on a serving tray.
- Slice the top off of the garlic head and place whole garlic on a sheet of tin foil. Drizzle garlic with olive oil. Bake for 40 minutes to 1 hour. When the garlic is soft and squeezable, it is ready
- Cook broccoli according to package instructions.
- Right before pumpkin is done, cook rice according to the package instructions.
- Mix rice with broccoli, shredded cheese and roasted garlic to your taste. (I use the whole bulb because I love love love garlic!)
- Add rice mixture into the middle of the cooked pumpkin. Arrange any leftover rice mixture around the base of the pumpkin on the serving tray.
- If you are not going to eat this right away put it in a warm oven. Slice at table into wedges.
