That looks great. My mum makes a quiche with a rice base too.
Could you use something else instead of the pumpkin? My fussy kids won't eat pumpkin.

i think you could use other veggies like zuchhini, potato, sweet potato, corn kernels, peas, carrot...

do they like any of those? what veggies do they eat?
