2 cups pumpkin

1 1/2 cups veg oil
3 cups flour
2 pkg (3-4 oz) instant coconut pudding mix

t tsp baking soda
1 tsp nutmeg
3/4 cup chopped pecans

In a large bowl, beat eggs and pumpkin til smooth. Add sugar and oil. Mix well. Combine flour, pudding mixes, cinnamon, baking soda and nutmeg. Add to the pumpkin mixture. Stir in nuts. Transfer into 3 greased and floured 8x4x2 loaf pans. Bake at 350 degrees for 60-65 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely. Wrap and freeze for up to 6 months.
