This recipe came from the Raleigh Farmers Market.
You can cook your pumpkin just as you would a sweet potato. Cut it into small pieces, cover with water and simmer until pumpkin is tender. Or, you can bake your pumpkin in the oven. Line a cookie sheet with foil. Cut pumpkin in half and remove the seeds. Bake for an hour at 350* or until tender. This casserole is sweet, sweet, sweet!

This sounds like a tasty way to enjoy pumpkin! I like the nutmeg that you added - a little ground ginger might be good, too.
