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 Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.

Loved this recipe, though I made some changes. I didnt have pineapple, so I omitted the fruit and juice, and used lemon juice instead. I also didn't have grapes. I used olive oil mayo instead. I estimated quantities and mixed to desired consistency. Turned out great!

I love this chicken salad recipe. You would never guess it uses fat free mayo. I leave out the almonds to reduce the fat a little more. Also I substitute dried cranberries for the raisins, which I think is a perfect complement to the other flavors. I live alone and cut the recipe but still make plenty to have for a few days.
This is my standard chicken salad recipe, and I always get raves. Even better the next day..if anything is left!
