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
1 poblano chile
Additional serrano or jalapeno chiles (optional)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 small onion, minced
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 cup shredded Asadero cheese (or Monterey jack or mozzarella cheese)
1/4 cup half and half
salt, to taste
Corn chips or flour tortillas
directions
Roast the poblano chile, then peel and remove stem and seeds. (If desired, roast a couple of serrano or jalapeno chiles at the same time; seed and mince.) Slice poblano into thin strips (rajas).
Heat the oil in a pan, add the onion and garlic and saute just until the onion is transparent. Add the poblano strips, cheese and half-and-half and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the cheese is creamy, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt. Transfer to a heated chafing dish and serve immediately, along with chips or tortillas. Recipe can be increased if desired.

We tried this recipe for a dinner party only to discover that we know this recipe to be what is called Queso Fundido around Southern New Mexico. It was very good and was a hit with all our guests.
