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.
This Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.

The head chef at my mother's gracious living home prepared this recipe for 100+ people for a big birthday celebration. It was absolutely delicious! He didn't use the pecans or coconut because it was such a big crowd (possible allergies) but I would bet preparing it for a smaller crowd with the pecans would only add to it's delectibility! Yum!!!
