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.

serves/makes:
ready in:
1-2 hrs
1-2 hrs
ingredients
8 ounces ricotta or cottage cheese
8 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
3 eggs, lightly beaten
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
20 sheets phyllo dough
1/2 pound butter, melted
directions
Mix together the cheeses, eggs, parsley, salt, and pepper.
Cut the phyllo sheets crosswise into 3 rectangles. Place a rectangle on a work surface and gently brush with melted butter. Place 1 tablespoon of the cheese mixture in one corner. Fold the rectangles in half lengthwise to cover the cheese mixture.
Fold the corner with the cheese mixture diagonally to make a point, and continue folding and rolling the triangle until the entire piece of dough is wrapped around the filling. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling. (The tiropites may be frozen at this point and baked directly from the freezer.)
Place on a lightly greased baking sheet and brush with melted butter. Bake in a preheated 425 degrees F oven until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
If you're a fan of the menu at this American chain of restaurants which serves a variety of foods such as burgers, steaks, pasta, and seafood then you'll love this collection of copycat recipes.
