Pumpkins are November's Harvest of the Month! Do you like
pumpkin pie? Original pumpkin pie recipes used by settlers
involved baking a hollowed-out pumpkin instead of crust,
stuffed with apples, milk and spices. Pumpkins are an
excellent source of potassium and vitamin A, as well as a good
source of fiber. Pumpkin seeds also pack a high nutrition
punch, including protein, fiber and a variety of vitamins and
minerals.
