Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

ingredients
1/2 pound lean ground beef
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup salsa, plus additional for serving
8 flour tortillas (5-inch size)
1 cup refried beans
1 cup shredded colby-monterey jack cheese
guacamole
directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a baking sheet lightly.
Cook ground beef and onion in a medium skillet over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until beef is browned and crumbly, 5-7 minutes. Drain fat from pan. Stir in 1/2 cup salsa.
Microwave tortillas, one at a time, on HIGH for 10 seconds to soften.
Spread about 2 tablespoons refried beans in center of each tortilla. Spoon about 2 tablespoons beef mixture on top of beans. Sprinkle each with about 2 tablespoons cheese.
Fold in sides to overlap filling slightly. Fold bottoms up and over filling and roll to enclose filling. Place tortillas, seam sides down, on prepared baking sheet.
Bake burritos until heated through, 8-10 minutes. Cut each burrito in half. Serve with guacamole and additional salsa.

A quick tip: mix the refried beans into the ground beef mixture and heat through. It will make them easier to spread. Then just use 4 tablespoons of the combined mixture on each tortilla. This recipe was easy to prepare and tasted quite good. You can use different salsa varieties to change the flavor to your liking (such as chipotle or green tomatillo salsas). Let the burritos sit for a minute before trying to slice them (otherwise the filling may ooze out).
