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 is an amazing soup. It's a pretty color too from the carrots so I can see serving this at a dinner party. I thought it was even good cold.
