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.

Broccoli mac' n cheese isn't just a way to make a decadent dish healthier by sneaking in a cruciferous green, it's also a killer flavor combo. A cheesy duo of cheddar and swiss makes this a magnificent mac.

2 cups uncooked elbow macaroni or corkscrew pasta
1/4 cup butter, diced
2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
2 cups Swiss cheese, grated
3 eggs, lightly beaten with a fork
1/2 cup sour cream
1 can (10.75 ounce size) condensed cheddar cheese soup
1 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dry ground mustard
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 package (16 ounce size) frozen broccoli florets, thawed
Heat large pot of water to boiling over high heat. When boiling, add 1 teaspoon salt and macaroni. Give it a good stir and cook for appropriate number of minutes according to package instructions. Drain well and set aside.
Combine the butter and cheeses in a large sauce pan over low heat, stirring constantly, until the cheese melts. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
In a crock pot, combine the lightly beaten eggs, sour cream, soup, milk, salt, pepper, mustard and nutmeg. Stir until well combined. Stir in the melted butter/cheese mixture. Stir in the cooked, drained macaroni until well combined. Gently stir in the thawed frozen broccoli. Set the crock pot on the LOW setting and cook for about three hours, stirring occasionally.

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.

I omitted the dry mustard because I didn't have any but otherwise followed the recipe exactly and it turned out very good. I liked the combination of cheeses.
