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.

My son LOVES trade-winds salad. We vary it a little. Pineapple yogurt substitutes sour-cream. Light Spam chopped small replaces ham. Light margarine replaces butter. It is one of our favorites.
