This manicotti is a wonderful change from typical pumpkin dishes in the fall. —Barry Dale, Puyallup,

Ingredients

1 pound bulk pork sausage
1 medium carrot, chopped
1 celery rib, chopped
1 can (15 ounces) pumpkin
1/2 medium onion, chopped
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/4 teaspoon each ground ginger, cinnamon and nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
20 wonton wrappers

Instructions

In a large skillet, cook sausage, celery, carrot and onion over medium heat until sausage is no longer pink and vegetables are tender, 10-12 minutes, breaking up sausage into crumbles; drain.
Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, combine pumpkin, cream, wine and spices. Heat through (do not allow to boil).
Preheat oven to 350°. Spread 1 cup pumpkin sauce into a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Place 2 tablespoons sausage filling in center of a wonton wrapper. (Cover remaining wrappers with a damp paper towel until ready to use.) Moisten wrapper edges with water. Roll up tightly. Place in prepared dish, seam side down. Repeat.
Top with remaining sauce. Bake, uncovered, until bubbly, 30-35 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
