Pumpkin Soup with Sage and Walnuts
Healthy, because
Even smarter
Nutritional values
Pumpkin offers plenty of the cell-protecting plant pigment beta-carotene, a precursor to vitamin A, which is important for healthy eyes. Walnuts provide plenty of healthy polyunsaturated fatty acids.
Not only is this soup super healthy, it's also super convenient - because you can freeze it beautifully and then thaw it in portions.
