I invented this a few years ago for our pumpkin carving party. My son is allergic to tomatoes, so I decided to search for pumpkin sloppy joe recipes (since Sloppy Joe's was our main dish idea). All the pumpkin sloppy joes recipes I found had tomato paste in them anyways. So, this is what I came up with and everyone loved them. Enjoy!
Pumpkin Sloppy Rachels
Ingredients
1 T grape seed oil (or canola) -----OMIT if not lean turkey
1 package lean ground turkey (1 or 1 1/4 lbs.)
1/2 medium yellow onion--diced
1 clove garlic -- diced tiny
15 oz black beans (with juice)
20 oz can pumpkin -- make sure it is just pumpkin, and not pumpkin pie filling
10 shakes Chili Oil (about 1/2 T)
1 T Worcestershire sauce
water--add enough while cooking to keep from burning or boiling dry
salt and pepper to taste
Brown lean ground turkey in grape seed oil.
Add diced onion and garlic -- stir and cook until the onions are clear.
Add a little water to keep turkey from burning (1/2 cup)
Add black beans with juice and pumpkin

Serve over split whole wheat rolls with a steamed green vegetable (broccoli looks good) and julienned bell peppers of a variety of color.
Pure Joy.
