Nothing reminds us more of fall and cool weather than pumpkins…however, have you ever thought of making pumpkin soup for your dinner tonight? I hope you’ll give this recipe a try. Here are several reasons: pumpkin is loaded with beta-carotene, an important antioxidant. Current research tells us a diet rich in foods containing beta-carotene may reduce the risk of developing certain types of cancer, protects us against heart disease, as well as some degenerative aspects of aging.
Notice this pumpkin soup recipe also “sneaks in” some mashed carrots to add even more nutrition to this soup. The beans (your choice – either white or black beans) add some all important fiber to the diet. You don’t have to tell your family how good this soup is for you, just make it and you will be pleasantly surprised!
Happy Cooking,
Donna
