Pumpkin casserole
Description
Pumpkin casserole is a very simple yet extremely delicious dish. It takes about an hour to prepare, but my family loves it so much that they are always happy to wait while it's baking. In the fall, when fresh young pumpkin is available, we make it constantly—almost every other day. It's really tasty. I hope you'll enjoy this pumpkin casserole recipe too. Good luck with cooking and bon appétit! ;)
