It’s officially pumpkin season!
The air is finally changing and as it gets crisper and fresher, you wish to cosy up with more indulging and heart-warming meals. The good news is, the new season brings along one of the most versatile (and delicious) veggies around.
From healthy treats to scrumptious comforting meals there’s no end to what you can make with pumpkin, and it’s packed with fantastic benefits for your body.
A cup of cooked, mashed pumpkin has more than 200 percent of your recommended daily intake of vitamin A, which is essential for eye health. It’s also packed with fiber (which keep you fuller longer), beta-carotene and other antioxidants with cancer protective properties.
All the good reasons to celebrate with a fantastic round-up of genius pumpkin dishes to try during the fall season and even after.
I’ve put together the most delicious pumpkin recipes from The Petite Cook and some of my favorite food bloggers around the web – Everything is covered, from breakfast to soups and snacks, desserts, and satisfying drinks. All made with simple seasonal ingredients with loads of gluten/dairy-free, vegan and vegetarian options.
