When doing mashed potatoes, I often boil with a chunk of squash/pumpkin and some leek, generally in a pressure cooker. Any liquid left from cooking is used making gravy.
This is one of mine (the dark green one) - hopefully it was eaten subsequently

The Moneyless Chicken is collecting these today.
Don't people realise that they're edible??

Probably not saving seeds for growing as they're likely to have crossed with others. Of course, I may just scatter them randomly somewhere.

And not saving them to grow does mean you have more to eat ![Cool Cool](https://gardenandgossip.org/images/smilies/cool.png) .

I like to dry/shallow fry them until they pop. Some are chewier than others - its a few years since I've had some seeds to pop.
One thing I've learned in the last few days - pumpkins in photos look much larger than they are in the flesh. Wish I could say the same.

It's just reminded me I haven't made Bara Brith for ages
My mum says it's definitely better spread with butter. Me, I hate butter on cake. Butter is for toast.
