I have become a huge pumpkin fan since I started this Food Desert Convenience Store Blog. I have found a remarkable amount of convenience stores that sell pumpkin puree. Why, I ask why did I only eat pumpkin in pumpkin pie? and why did I only eat it once a year?? Pumpkin puree is so good. I am about to post a ton of recipes besides pie, and all are going to be starring-you guessed it, pumpkin puree. This pumpkin bread went over great and was super easy and healthy. More then taste though, lets talk about why pumpkin is good for our bodies.
Pumpkin's rich color indicates that it is high in nutrients. It is choke full of vitamins and nutrients including Vitamin A, C, K and E. It is very high in antioxidents alpha and beta carotene which researches have proven helps to ward off cancer cells. It is also high in potassium, which studies have shown lowers the risk of hypertension.
