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.

ingredients
1 3/4 pound small shrimp
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 cup canned tomato sauce
3 tablespoons onions, chopped very fine
2 1/2 tablespoons green bell peppers, chopped
2 tablespoons celery, chopped very fine
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon white pepper
1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
1 1/2 cup basic shrimp stock
1/2 cup heavy cream
3 1/2 cups basic cooked rice
3/4 cup green onions, finely chopped
1 cup packed, lump crab meat
directions
If shrimp with heads are not available, buy 1 pound shrimp with shells and substitute other seafood ingredients for the heads in making the seafood stock. Peel the shrimp and use the heads and shells to make the stock; refrigerate shrimp until ready to use.
In a large skillet melt the butter with the oil. Add the tomato sauce, onions, bell peppers, celery, garlic, salt, white pepper, thyme and cayenne pepper; saute over medium heat 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
Add the stock and continue cooking over high heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the rice, green onions and crab meat, keeping the lumps of crab meat intact as much as possible. Heat through and serve immediately.

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
This Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.
