Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375˚F (190˚C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cut off the top third of pumpkin. Remove the pumpkin seeds and pulp (reserve the seeds for another use).
- Drizzle the inside of the pumpkin with 1 tablespoon of olive and sprinkle with a pinch of salt.
- Place the pumpkin on the baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes until slightly softened.
- While the pumpkin is baking, make the chili: Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet with a lid over medium heat, until shimmering. Add the onion and garlic, and sauté for 2 minutes, until translucent.
- Add the ground beef and cook until browned, 7-10 minutes.
- Add the kidney beans, tomatoes, tomato paste, salt, pepper, chili powder, paprika, cinnamon, cumin, and water, and stir to combine. Cook for 5 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to low, add the cream cheese and 1 cup of Monterey Jack, and stir until incorporated. Remove from the heat.
- Once the pumpkin is done baking, remove from the oven and turn the oven to broil.
- Carefully pour the chili cheese dip into the pumpkin. Sprinkle the remaining cup of Monterey Jack cheese on top, all the way to the edge of the pumpkin.
- Return to the oven and broil for 2-4 minutes, until the cheese is golden brown. Watch carefully to make sure it doesn't burn.
- Remove the pumpkin from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Using oven mitts or kitchen towels, carefully move the pumpkin to a serving platter.
- Top with chopped chives and serve with chips and crudités for dipping.
- Enjoy!
