Nutritional data has not been calculated yet.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.
Ranking #1 in nearly every "favorite cookie" poll, the chocolate chip cookie is pretty much the go-to cookie of choice for both kids and grownups alike.

I rate this recipe 4 stars but a 5 if you folow the instructions below! The recipe is very good. I have a great tip instead of mixing corn meal etc. for crust use corn tortillas as the crust. Spray the cassarole pan with garlic Pam Cooking and line the cassarole dish with corn tortillas spray ahain and add another layer of tortillas, then fill with tamale pie filling and bake as per recipe instructions. It taste really good, sprinkle with Monterey cheese and olives before removing from oven.
