Great Pumpkin Dishes. Savory. Spicy.

Its the season of the pumpkin. Pumpkin picking, pumpkin carving, pumpkin spice latte, the Great Pumpkin and, of course, pumpkin pie. Its well known that pumpkin is usually associated with dessert because of its natural sweetness. But did you know that pumpkin works well with savory and spicy flavors too?  

Here are a number of fresh ideas for serving pumpkin. How about Savory and Spicy curries? A sweet and savory lasagna? And most of these suggestions are vegetarian too!

Don’t like pumpkin? Replace pumpkin with many of the winter squashes now available. (Butternut squash is one good substitute, but leave the spaghetti squash for another day!).
