As I’ve said before, I can’t get enough of anything pumpkin and what’s so incredible about these orange veggie-like fruit, is its versatility. There are recipes for breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner, so there’s no limit what can be made for any time of the day.

Besides being amazingly delicious, one of the absolute best things is their health benefits, so where do I begin. Okay, first, it has lots of beta-carotene which means loads of vitamin A. In fact, pumpkin contains over 200% of our recommended daily requirement, along with a good dose of vitamin C. Did you know that vitamin A helps your body fight infections, viruses and infectious diseases?

It’s also weight loss friendly because it’s high in fiber which helps to slow digestion and will keep you fuller longer. These recipes are great to get some crazy nutritious meals that your kids will love and they will never know how good it is for them.
