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 iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.
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.

I love this recipe, I make mine with ground turkey and its just as good. I usually use a tad more meat than a pound, but other than that. I wouldn't change a thing.

I love this recipe, glad I found it on line had lost mine. I don't like cottage cheese so I substituted ricotta for it. Favorite of the whole family, kids included
