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.

A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
Love the spinach dip at restaurants like TGIFriday's and the Olive Garden? Make it at home with these easy-to-follow copycat recipes.

I used this glaze on a smoked ham and it was excellent!! It added a nice sweet balance to the smokiness of the ham. I modified the recipe slightly by substituting 2 tbsp of yellow mustard for the 2 tsp dry mustard and using pineapple rings instead of the mandarin oranges, just my preference. This glaze will be a permanent part of my recipe collection and will be used over and over again. Enjoy!!

i made this ham for thanksgiving, and it turned out sooo well that my husband didn't want any of our guests to take any with them! =)the only things i did different was use an oven bag for that first hour in the oven, and later i added pineapple rings and cherries as well. other than that, this is a great recipe. making two for Christmas!

I made this for a work party and it was absolutely amazing! I added pineapple rings and cherries as well. I also used a shank partially cooked ham and slow cooked it (10 pounds for 4 hours-20 minutes per pound). I cooked it for 3 hours before adding the glaze and fruit. It was tender and wonderful! Thanks for the great idea!
