Pumpkin

Pumpkin

This silly orange squash is good for more than just carving scary faces. Pumpkins provide a delicious dose of Vitamin A and C. And like some of the other winter squash, it works well with both sweet and savory flavors. Pumpkin can be mixed with ground beef and herbs for a delicious entree, or sugar and spices for a sweet treat.

canned pumpkin tip:

When cooking with canned pumpkin it is important to note the difference between two popular types available: puree and pie filling. Pumpkin puree is 100% pure pumpkin with no sweeteners or flavorings. Pumpkin pie filling has spices like nutmeg and cinnamon already added.
