I love Fall, it's the only time in Houston when you're able to spend time outside. I cooked my first ever pumpkin. I got an organic sugar pumpkin from Whole Foods about the size of your head and bright orange. I cut the pumpkin in half and proceeded to skin it, which was no easy task. I think it took about 30 min just to skin half of the pumpkin. Once I removed the skin, I cut the pumpkin in the bite size chunks that I could boil. In a saute pan, I sauteed an onion. Once the onion was translucent, I added the pumpkin and chicken stock. While the pumpkin was simmering, I cooked half a pound of rigatoni to add to the pumpkin mixture.
