I happen to love anything that has pumpkin in it. Here are some good nutrition values below:
As well as a very good recipe for
Bacon and Pumpkin Soup.
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.
