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.

Sausage and Eggs
2 pounds bulk sweet Italian sausage

1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh thyme
2 tablespoons olive oil (extra virgin )
1/4 cup white wine vinegar

directions
For cilantro cream: mix all ingredients in a bowl, season with salt and white pepper. Reserve, whisk before using.
For salsa: Combine all ingredients in a small bowl. Let sit at room temperature at least 1/2 hour before serving. Stir well.
For sausage and eggs: Combine sausage, garlic and herbs in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste and form into 1/2 inch thick patties (you'll need two per serving).
Heat olive oil in a heavy large skillet over medium heat. Brown sausage patties two minutes per side; cover pan, lower heat and cook about 10 minutes until sausage is cooked through.
Meanwhile, bring a wide, shallow pot of water to boil over high heat. Add vinegar. Crack eggs into water, reduce heat and simmer about three minutes to set whites. Using a slotted spoon, transfer eggs to paper towels.
Place one warm tortilla on each warmed plate. Place two sausage patties on top of each. Top sausages with eggs, cilantro cream and salsa.

This is a lot of work for an everyday breakfast but for something special it is totally worth it. Everything in here is perfect. The salsa is good - heat without overpowering everything. The cilantro cream sort of cools it off too. The sausage is nice and flavorful. You could use hot sausage too for more spice. Looks really awesome when plated.

Good! Best to make the salsa the night before.
