I usually substitute sweet potato pie for pumpkin. Tastes about the same and they're much easier to work with.
Say it ain't so!! I LOVE pumpkin and I can't stand sweet potato. The taste to me is soooo drastically different
You just haven't given them a chance. You have to massage the recipes a bit to suit your taste, and as with anything, the better the ingredients you put in, the better the resulting product will be.Say it ain't so!!

Besides, I'm sure if you were nice to the pumpkins, they'd be as easy to work with as the sweet potatoes.:
