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
2 portobello mushrooms
2 large red peppers
2 cherry tomatoes
1/2 red onion
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh coarsely ground black pepper
coriander leaves
Sauce
1/2 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
1/4 teaspoon Hungarian paprika
salt, to taste
directions
Whisk the sauce ingredients together. Wipe the mushrooms with a moist towel and slice long. Chop the onions along the grooves.
Place whole peppers and tomatoes on foil in a preheated oven at BROIL. Keep turning them until the peppers are charred. The tomatoes will bleed into the foil; don't throw that water away. Remove peppers and make long slices. Remove the core and the seeds.
Mix the cherry tomatoes and the fluid they exude, into the sauce. Mix well until the tomatoes are crushed into the sauce.
Pour the oil in a heated skillet. Saute onions and mushrooms. Sprinkle with black pepper. Add half the sauce and saute for a few minutes more.
To serve: Arrange the mushrooms on a plate. Place the red peppers around it. Pour the extra sauce on the circumference. Sprinkle coriander leaves over all.
Serve with brown rice or rye bread.

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.
It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

This was good, but a lot of work for the end result.
