Stuffed Pumpkin Wedges image

Serve this easy, beautiful, and delicious side dish with some cranberry chutney, a roast (or stew), and a nice warm cup of apple cider for a wonderful seasonal menu. Add 1/4 cup of raisins, or chopped dried fruit bits (such as apples, cranberries or apricots) to the stuffing if you like. A special thanks to Chef #599450 for helping us revise this recipe.
