Found this recipe a few years ago in a magazine, when I was looking for something different to do with an abundance of pumpkin from my garden. If you are vegetarian and looking for something a little different, then you will love this. I use chicken stock but the recipe calls for vegetable stock. Next time I am going to try making it with chicken in it.
