This is a VERY tasty side that's PERFECT for Halloween. You can only usually find baby pumpkins around thanksgiving/Halloween so it's a nice seasonal treat! Recipes from my favorite Vegetable Cook Book

This looks very tasty! Because of the ingredients - notably the wild mushrooms and the hazelnuts - this would definitely fall in the "special occasions" recipe category for me, but what an occasion it would make!
