Pumpkin isn’t just delicious – it’s practically a “superfood” as well.
Not only does a single cup of cooked, mashed pumpkin contain more than 200% of your daily RDA of vitamin A (which helps keep your vision healthy), it’s the dietary fiber that’ll help keep you full.
And with the cooler weather in the air, there’s no better time than now to enjoy pumpkin recipes like Pumpkin Cheesecake Muffins, Coconut-Pumpkin Ice Cream, and Pumpkin Shrimp Curry.
Enjoy!
You can make pumpkin waffles with cinnamon and other spices, although not everyone wants to eat dessert for breakfast. If you’d rather have a hearty breakfast, you’ll want to serve up these savory waffles with sage sausage or crispy bacon.
They’d also be right at home on a brunch spread, especially if you’re hosting guests over an autumn weekend.

But since there are a lot of steps, like making from-scratch sage pesto and fried pumpkin seeds, you may want to reserve it for Thanksgiving. And since you’ll only use about half the pesto and pumpkin seeds, they’ll be a welcome addition to your post-holiday leftovers.

Get the RecipeWhat if I told you that just about everything magazines and trainers “teach” you about dieting is wrong?
What if you could build muscle and lose fat eating “naughty” foods every week?
What if you didn’t have to suffer through low-carb dieting to get lean? In fact, what if you could eat all the carbs you wanted?
And what if you didn’t have to gorge yourself just to gain muscle and didn’t have to put on pounds and pounds of ugly fat, either?
In short, what if I told you that proper dieting--whether you want to maximize fat loss or muscle growth--is much simpler and more enjoyable than you’ve been led to believe?
Imagine eating delicious, filling meals every day...never feeling starved or stuffed...having great energy levels and workouts...and watching your body respond exactly as you desire, dropping fat or adding muscle each and every week.
And imagine finally understanding how proper dieting really works, never again falling for the BS, tricks, and gimmicks pushed by “gurus” and other shysters.
Well, I have good news.
All these “fantasies” can be a reality...if you know how to do a handful of “little” things correctly.
You see, when you know how to diet properly--and this doesn’t mean learning to eat boiled chicken and raw broccoli six times per day--getting lean and muscular becomes simple, convenient, and dare I say...enjoyable.
