Chuy's, a popular Austin Tex-Mex restaurant, is famous for their jalapeno ranch. It's served both as a dip with tortilla chips or as a salad dressing. Hint: it's also great drizzled on tacos!

1 1/2 cup prepared ranch salad dressing
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup diced roasted green chiles
1/4 cup sliced pickled jalapenos
4 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
Combine all the ingredients in a blender, in batches if needed, and process until smooth.
Use immediately or refrigerate in a covered container for up to 1 week.

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.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
