2/3 C. canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling, just plain pumpkin!!)
1/4 C. granulated sugar
2 eggs
8 oz. egg noodles
8 oz. sour cream
1/4 C. (1/2 of a standard stick) of butter
Boil and drain the egg noodles according to package directions. (I left mine a little al dente figuring their time in the oven would further cook them and prevent any soggy noodles.) Melt the butter in a microwave safe bowl. Beat in butter, the sour cream (to cool it down), then the pumpkin, and finally the eggs. Combine the pumpkin-sour cream mixture with the cooked noodles. Pour all into a buttered 6x6 deep casserole. (Why do I have one of these? My Great-grandmother on my mom's side was getting ready to move to assisted living a couple of years ago, and, having lived by herself all those years, had plenty of small cooking dishes that she didn't need anymore. So she passed some of them on to me.) Bake it, covered, at 350 for about an hour. Serves approximately 4-6.

And there you have it! It's slightly sweet, has a vegetable in it, and is rich and satisfying. I would upload a picture but honestly I tore into it straight out of the oven.
