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.
Tic-Tac-Toe Pepperoni Pizza

- #76495
under 30 minutes
ingredients
1 pita bread round, preferably whole wheat
2 tablespoons pizza or spaghetti sauce
1 stick mozzarella string cheese
3 slices pepperoni (or more as desired)
1/2 green or red bell pepper
directions
Heat oven to 425 degrees F.
Place the pita bread on a cookie sheet or a cooking stone. Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the top of the pita. Cut the string cheese in half from end to end using a safe cutter or knife. Cut each half again from end to end to make 4 long strings of cheese.
Arrange the cheese strings over the pizza sauce to make a tic-tac-toe pattern. (You should have 9 square spaces.) Place the pepperoni slices on some of the square spaces.
Cut the bell pepper in half from end to end and scrape out the seeds. Using a cookie cutter, cut 3 stars from the bell pepper. Place the pepper stars on the rest of the openings.
Bake the pizza for 7 to 8 minutes or until cheese begins to melt. Carefully remove the pan from the oven using oven mitts. Cut the pizza into triangles using a pizza cutter.
