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.

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Divide the dough in half, wrap in plastic, and chill for 2 hours.
On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick and stamp out desired shapes with cookie cutter.
Transfer to ungreased baking sheets, spacing 1 inch apart, and bake for 7 to 9 minutes or until lightly golden around the edges.
Let cool for 5 minutes on the sheets and transfer to racks to cool completely.

A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
