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.

I've done seasoned pecans in the oven before but never in the crock pot. They turned out well. Will try other nuts next time or maybe a blend. The seasoning was delicious!

I've also done these with different and mixed nuts. Really tasty with cashews.
