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.

What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
reviews & comments
Had this recently at a potluck and found it very runny, almost like it wasn't cooked all the way. Not your typical, firm quiche recipe.
Are you saying you made this for a potluck, or simply ate it at a potluck? If you didn't actually make it, then I'm not sure you could negatively rate this particular recipe. However, if you actually made it please re-review it and let us know more details about it. [changed rating to comment only because it was unclear if you made it yourself or not]

I made this for a potluck and it got RAVE reviews. I've already forwarded the recipe to some friends. Thanks for an unexpected treasure!
