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.

Thanks for the heads up on the salt. I only added 1 teaspoon and it was delicious. Definitely doesn't need one tablespoon!!! Also, nowhere sells 9.25 ounce cans of tuna so I had to use smaller ones combined, just in case you are going crazy looking for some giant can of tuna that doesn't exist.

Way too salty. Did you mean 1 tsp instead of 1 Tbsp. I should have known better, but I put 1/2 Tbsp. first, thinking 1 whole Tbsp was too much, and I wish I would've put only one tsp. It was so salty that I had too add sour cream and cottage cheese to tone it down. After that it was edible, though I couldn't get the salty taste out of my mind.
