Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.


5 pounds medium yellow squash
2 eggs, beaten
2 cups bread crumbs
1/2 cup butter or margarine
1/4 cup granulated sugar
salt, to taste
2 tablespoons chopped onion
1 dash freshly ground black pepper
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Cut off tips of squash, then cut each squash into 3 or 4 pieces. Drop squash into a large saucepan with enough boiling water to cover. Return to a boil, reduce heat and cook until tender. Drain squash in colander, then place in a large bowl and mash. Stir in eggs, crumbs, butter, sugar, salt, onion and pepper. Spoon mixture into a 3-quart casserole that has been lightly greased or coated with vegetable oil spray. Sprinkle a light layer of bread crumbs on top. Bake until lightly browned, 30 to 40 minutes.

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.
A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

I was a frequent guest at The Black Eyed Pea Restaurant in Dallas. This recipe always receives rave reviews as a side dish at multiple events. It is easy to prepare.
So where are the blackeye peas?
This is a copycat recipe from a restaurant chain called "Black-Eyed Pea". The recipe does not contain black eyed peas.
Because I had no bread crumbs, but had leftover cream of wheat with raisins from breakfast, I used that (plus two slices of fresh bread, torn into small pieces.) Strange, I know, but it turned out pretty good. The raisins substituted for sugar.
