Fall is Pumpkin Time!

Fall is one of my favorite times because everywhere you turn there are foods containing pumpkin. What I love about pumpkins is that they are a great nutrient-rich food. They are loaded with antioxidants such as beta-carotene, which is the plant carotenoid that converts to vitamin A (important for vision, immune system, bone health and an antioxidant). Pumpkins are also a great source of potassium and magnesium.

Pumpkin puree can be added to so many recipes to enhance flavor and boost nutritional value. Here are just a few ideas!

• Add pumpkin to
• • Greek yogurt along with some granola to make a parfait
  • Hot oatmeal along with a sprinkle of cinnamon or pumpkin spice
  • Homemade pancakes, waffles, muffins or cookies
• Try roasted pumpkin seeds as an afternoon snack, in a trail mix or on a salad

Pumpkin protein bites are a great on-the-go breakfast along with a cup of low fat milk
