Halloween is coming and what better way to celebrate a spooky evening, than by cooking a hearty pumpkin meal!

Do you know?
Pumpkins are packed full of nutrients including vitamin C and E, beta-carotene, which all protect our eyes.
In addition to beta carotene, pumpkins offer folate -- all of which including the above contribute in strengthening our immune system.
The more pumpkin in your diet, the better your immune cells work to ward off germs and speed healing!
Pumpkins are one of the key ingredients in Chef Gino's Halloween menu 🙌🏼
