"A man who was fond of wine was offered some grapes at dessert after dinner. "Much obliged," said he, pushing the plate aside; "I am not accustomed to take my wine in pills."--Jean Antheleme Brillat-Savarin, The Physiology of Taste

Ingredients:  
Nonstick cooking spray and 2 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 cup chopped onion (1 medium)
1 fresh jalapeno chile pepper, seeded and finely chopped
1 15 ounce can pumpkin
1 1/2 cups water
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 cup canned no-salt-added red kidney beans, rinsed and drained

Directions:
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly coat a 2-quart rectangular baking dish with cooking spray; set aside. In a medium saucepan heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and jalapeno pepper; cook about 5 minutes or until onion is tender, stirring occasionally. Stir in pumpkin, 1-1/2 cups of the water, the chili powder, salt, and cumin. Cook and stir until heated through. If necessary, stir in enough of the remaining 1/4 cup water to reach desired consistency.
2. Place beans in a large bowl; mash slightly with a fork. Stir in half of the pumpkin mixture, the chicken, and 1/4 cup of the cheese.
3. Spoon a generous 1/3 cup of the bean mixture onto each tortilla. Roll up tortillas; place, seam sides down, in the prepared baking dish. Pour the remaining pumpkin mixture over tortilla rolls.
4. Bake, covered, 15 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup cheese. Bake, uncovered, about 10 minutes more or until heated through. If desired, serve with pico de gallo and lime.
