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.

ingredients
2/3 cup lentils
1 1/2 cup water
2 cups brown sugar
1 1/2 cup hard margarine
2 large eggs or equivalent substitute
3 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour (stir the flour before measuring)

directions
Simmer lentils in water for 45 minutes in a covered pan. Do not drain.
Puree the lentils or beat with a wire whip, adding liquid as necessary to make a pumpkin-like consistency.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Cream together the sugar and margarine with a mixer on medium speed. Add the eggs and mix on low speed until just blended. Add the vanilla and lentil puree, and mix until blended.
Mix the flour, salt, and baking soda until blended and add to the creamed mixture in thirds, mixing on low just until blended. Add the oats, chips, and walnuts, and gently blend.
Place teaspoonfuls of mixture on a greased cookie sheet, approximately 1 inch apart and bake in a preheated, 375 degrees F oven for 12 to 15 minutes. Do not over-bake. Cool.
These cookies freeze and transport well.

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.
