A creamy, frosty, non-alcoholic tropical banana punch.

5 ripe bananas, peeled and cut into chunks
46 ounces pineapple juice
4 cups sugar
5 cups water
1 can (12 ounce size) frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
1 can (12 ounce size) frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed
5 quarts ginger ale
Combine the bananas and 2 cups of the pineapple juice in a blender. Process until smooth. Transfer the mixture to a large freezer-safe container. Add the remaining pineapple juice, sugar, water, orange juice, and lemonade. Mix until the sugar dissolves. Place in the freezer until frozen.
When ready to serve, scoop the frozen banana mixture with an ice cream scoop into a punch bowl. Add the ginger ale and stir gently. Serve immediately.

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.
Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
