Рецепт Baby Pumpkin Stuffed with Ham, Walnuts and Sage

by Katie Zeller

Pumpkins and Puppies Number 3: feeding frenzy with the big dogs.

I grew these miniature pumpkins 2 years ago.

They were perfect single serving size and just demanded being stuffed.

Mini Pumpkins Stuffed with Ham, Walnuts and Sage

Total time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

• 2 tiny pumpkins
• 1.5oz (45gr) walnuts, broken in half
• 3 slices Prosciutto or other dry-cured ham, roughly chopped
• 10 – 12 fresh sage leaves, roughly chopped
• 2 tbs butter
• 2 tbs maple syrup

Instructions:

Cut the top 1/3 off each pumpkin. Scoop out the seeds

Place tops and bottoms cut side down on a baking sheet and bake, 400F (200C) oven, for 15 minutes.

While pumpkins bake:

Sauté the ham and walnuts in butter for 5 minutes.

Add sage and sauté 5 minutes longer..

When pumpkins are ready fill with the stuffing, including all the butter.

Divide maple syrup and drizzle over the top

Return to the oven for 5 minutes, just to heat through.

Remove and serve with the tops.

The first time we went back to visit our dogs ‘family’ was for the birthday party of our friend, 3 years ago.

After the food was all prepped I had the privilege of taking the treats outside for the pack.

From the left we have my 2, Bonnie & Guapa, great-uncle Panda, great-grandma Tippy, brother Ghengis and Mom, Misty (R.I.P)

As you can see, mine are the smallest of the lot.
