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.
Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.

We love asparagus, & also shrimp, so we'll be making this very soon. It sounds not only tasty, but also pretty healthy. For us, I'll use whole grain pasta, & add a few sliced Crimini mushrooms if I happen to have 'em in the fridge.
