The pumpkin quesadillas were soooooo good (executed by London)!
Ingredients:
1 Box Macaroni Noodles
1/2 Pumpkin Pie Pumpkin
1/2 cup Milk
1 bag Shredded Mozzarella
1/3 cup Pumpkin Puree
Directions
1/3 cup Pumpkin Puree
Directions
1. Cut the top off like you would if you were carving a pumpkin and set it to the side after cutting a bit of the flesh and guts/seeds off. Take a spoon and spoon out the stringy stuff and the seeds out and rinse it out. Cut half the pumpkin into chunks and put on to a cookie sheet to roast for about 20 - 30 minutes on about 400F in the oven.
2. Cook a box of macaroni noodles till they are al dente (about 10 minutes). Mix with 1/2 a cup of milk, and bag of shredded mozzarella.
3. At this time the pumpkin should be about done, take out the chunks and with a fork scoop out the fleshy part from the skin. Mash up the flesh and add it to the pan with the noodles, cheese, and milk. Mix them well and salt and pepper to taste. To enhance the pumpkin flavor, I added about a 1/3 cup of pumpkin puree to the mixture.
