PUMPKIN SLOPPY JOES
When my oldest granddaughter gave me eight of the 50 pumpkins she grew in her backyard, I didn't know how I'd use them all up! Then I remembered this recipe from a dear friend-I'm glad I tried it. I froze some of the pumpkin to use in this and other recipes, and also froze some of the sloppy joe mixture to enjoy later.-Eleanor McReynolds, Scott City, Kansas

[email protected]The sloppy joes were good, but I didn't think the pumpkin flavor really came through. I might try adding more pumpkin puree next time.
