Stuffed Thanksgiving Pumpkins (Diabetic Friendly) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    8 small fresh pumpkin (baby)
    1/3 cup vegetable stock
    1/2 cup onion (finely chopped)
    2 large garlic cloves (minced)
    1/2 teaspoon dried sage
    1/2 teaspoon thyme
    1 cup whole wheat breadcrumbs
    1/4 cup nuts (toasted (your favorite)
    1/3 cup celery (finely chopped)
    1/4 cup dried apricot (chopped)
    1/2 cup nutritional yeast flakes, grated
    salt
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Slice off the top 1/2 inch of each pumpkin and scoop out the seeds. Bake pumpkins for 15 minutes.
    In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat stock to simmering and cook onions until softened but not browned.
    Add garlic, sage, thyme, and bread crumbs. Cook, stirring, 1 minute, then remove from.
    heat and stir in remaining ingredients.
    Fill pumpkins with stuffing. (Any remaining stuffing may be baked separately in a lightly oiled baking dish.).
    Bake for 15 minutes, or until stuffing is lightly browned and heated through. Be careful not to over bake the pumpkins, because they will split.
