We enjoyed this casserole. We used diced beef instead of ground beef. Next time I would use a larger pumpkin to fit more casserole but very tasty. -
Great fun! Nice presentation! I made this for a ladies Hallowe'en bridge luncheon and it was well received. I will definitely make it again. -
Delicious! My kids loved it and our friends thought it was really a cool idea. Will become a tradition every Halloween. We served it to go with our movie night watching "It's the Great Pumkin, Charlie Brown"

My first granddaughter, Shelby, couldn't say Grandma; it came out Bambo so I've been called that ever since, not only by my family, but my friends at work and their grandchildren.
