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.

What a great recipe - it stands as a dish on its own. Scaled down to two people and a quick and easy dinner! Yes adding a handful of cranberries nicely added to it.

I made this for a Thanksgiving potluck and it was very easy and delicious. I recommend not cooking the yams until completely soft because they continue to cook as they cool down; mine were a little mushy. Also, I added dried sweetened cranberries.
