I don’t know if you know this already but pumpkins are really healthy for you!  Pumpkin is rich in fiber and with three grams per one-cup serving and only 49 calories, it can keep you feeling full for longer on fewer calories. A fiber-rich diet seems to help people eat less, and thereby shed pounds. Plus pumpkins are packed full of vitamins and nutrients!  A cup of cooked, mashed pumpkin contains more than 200 percent of your recommended daily intake of vitamin A, which aids vision.  Pumpkins are also high in the antioxidant beta-carotene, which may play a role in cancer prevention, according to the National Cancer Institute. So you can enjoy this savory fresh pumpkin soup recipe without any guilt!
