Instructions: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

In a large bowl, combine the oil, salt, and pepper; mix well. Cut the pumpkin into 2-inch chunks and add to the oil mixture; toss to coat.

Place on rimmed baking sheets and bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until tender.

This recipe yields 6 servings.

Comments: Serve with butter and cinnamon-sugar, or drizzle with maple syrup. This should only be done with fresh pumpkins that have not been carved and burned or used as decoration. Pumpkin seeds can also be roasted - just clean well and allow to dry, then roast in an oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until golden. Sprinkle with salt, ground red pepper, or even dry salad dressing mix for extra zing.
