Healthy Recipes for Seasonal Fall and Winter Foods

Pumpkin
Amy Haskell
 

Pumpkin

Health benefits: Boasting high levels of a variety of vitamins and minerals, including iron, magnesium, niacin, potassium, vitamin A, and vitamin C, pumpkin is a nutritional powerhouse vegetable. The only bad point is that also contains a fair amount of natural sugar (1.6g per cup), so beware the calorie count when making it into an even sweeter dessert.

Nutrition: (1 cup, raw): 30 calories, 0.1g fat (0.1g saturated), 7.5g carbohydrates, 0.6g fiber, 1.2g protein

Recipes to try:

Spicy Pumpkin and Shrimp Soup

Pumpkin-Date Muffins

Bacon and Pumpkin Soup
