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.

This sounded about right, except the actual Olive Garden salad also has large whole black olives and sliced (not quartered) ROMA tomatoes! Using Roma tomatoes instead of vine-ripened or hydroponic tomatoes makes a huge difference, they have very different tastes.
Sounds ok, except that they're not banana peppers...Olive Garden uses Pepperocinis which look just like banana peppers but taste different.
