Using a sharp knife, cut lid from pumpkin and scoop out pumpkin seeds
and excess membrane with a scraping tool. In a large skillet, combine
ground beef, chopped green pepper, chopped celery, and chopped onion
and
cook over medium heat until ground beef is browned. Add next seven
ingredients to skillet. Mix well and place mixture into pumpkin cavity.
Place lid on pumpkin. Place pumpkin on a foil-lined cookie sheet and
bake at 350 degrees for 1-1/2 hours. Just before serving, embellish

steamed carrot to make a nose, and whole cloves to make a mouth. Use
fresh parsley leaves to make hair around like opening. To serve, scoop
