Roasted ghost ...pumpkin

Did you know the flesh of a white pumpkin is orange? I bought this ghost pumpkin a couple of weeks back and wasn't sure what I'd find when I went to cut it open, but I sure didn't expect that bright orange. What a surprise!

Last week I roasted the pumpkin and was adding it to just about everything I ate. This is how I roasted it: peel and cut pumpkin into 1" chunks, lightly coat with oil and place on baking sheets in a single layer. Roast at 400F for about 20 minutes, flip pumpkin around and roast another 15-20 minutes, or until tender and pieces are nicely browned. I didn't add any seasoning to this batch as I wanted to keep the flavor neutral for more versatility with the leftovers, which I also like to mash and freeze in one cup portions.
