Nutritional values

Thanks to the pumpkin this dish is a good source of vitamin A, which strengthens vision and ensures smooth skin. 

Instead of green spelt, this salad also tastes good with iron-rich millet, protein-rich quinoa or fiber-rich buckwheat. The Hokkaido pumpkin is ideal for quick cooking, because it doesn't need to be peeled, but butternut squash can be substituted
