Baked in a water bath, this pie has a texture that's more like a custard than a traditional pumpkin pie. In place of canned or fresh pumpkin, I sometimes use cushaw, a type of crookneck squash.
This chicken and rice casserole would be yummy enough with just the salsa, Cheddar and sour cream. The bounty of sauteed mushrooms is an oh-so-good bonus.
