Hidatsa Stuffed Sugar Pumpkin Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
1 sugar pumpkin, 4-5 pounds
2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp dry mustard
2 tbsp rendered fat
1 lb ground buffalo, venison or beef
1 medium onion, chopped
1 cup cooked wild rice
3 eggs, beaten
1 tsp crushed, dried sage
1/4 tsp pepper
Recipe Preparation
Preheat oven to 350 deg F. Cut the top off the pumpkin and remove
strings and seeds. Reserve seeds for another use. Prick the cavity
with a fork and rub with 1 teaspoon salt and the mustard. Heat fat in
a large skillet, add meat and onion and saute over medium-high heat
until browned. Off the heat, stir in wild rice, eggs, remaining salt,
sage and pepper.
Stuff pumpkin with the meat mixture. Place 1/2" water in the bottom
of a shallow baking pan. Put pumpkin in the pan and bake for 1 1/2
hours, or until tender. Add more water to the pan as neccessary to
avoid sticking.
To serve, cut pumpkin into wedges, giving each person pumpkin and
stuffing.

Food Tips of the Week
Dieting made easyOne useful tip is to drink plenty of water. From time to time at some stage in a hectic morning, you guess that you want a snack but in fact you might just need a refreshing glass of water or orange squash. The feelings of needing food and needing a drink are quite similar, but one of the two can lead to a broken diet and the other is ok.
Some low carb diet guidlines:
* Use soya flour or baking mix. When you have to use flour for baked goods, substitute soy flour or a baking mix such as Atkins soy baking mix. Most of the time, you may convert your most popular recipes that use standard wheat flour to use these alternatives.
* It is possible to make wonderful smoothies by using low carbohydrate yogurt. I know, you can't really describe it as cooking, but if you really want smoothies you can make perfectly acceptable alternatives by using low carbohydrate yogurt and fruit. Clearly, you will need to ensure you only make use of fruit that is low in carbs and use the whole fruit as you need the fiber.
