CRANBERRY PUMPKIN CHUTNEY

Cranberry Pumpkin Chutney image

It's a waste to throw out carved jack-o'-lanterns after Halloween, so I decided to make a pumpkin chutney with them. After trying a few recipes, I came up with this one, and it has become a family favorite. It's delicious, especially with turkey, chicken, ham or roast pork. -Maryalice Wood, Langley, British Columbia
