All quantities differ depending on the size of the pumpkin you get. Sorry.

Hollow pumpkin, put in oven to bake (it may help to put it in a pot or wrap it so that it doesn't get too weak & fall apart.

Cook rice (1 cup rice to 1 1/2 cup water) with bullion cube , garlic, & onion
Do not fully cook, rice will continue cooking in the pumpkin.

Cook ground beef with onion & garlic. Season with cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, curry, raw sugar, salt & pepper.

Mix it all together & add the beans, craisens, raisins, walnuts, and season it all again once together. Add rice mixture to pumpkin to continue cooking (45 minutes or so making all the flavors meld together)
