Pumpkin Casserole

Submitted by Mia in Germany

"I made this up after a business trip with no time to shop coming home late one sunday evening... Luckily there are always containers of pumpkin puree in my freezer! Edit: After talking to the reviewer I found that the pumpkin puree which is used in the US is not suitable for this recipe. So I'm changing it to oven baked fresh pumpkin and less broth."

I may have not prepared it correctly because it was very mushy and had a horrible consistancy. The flavors were very good, but it was hard to eat!!!
