Here are just a few reasons why I love this delicious harvest vegetable.
One cup of baked squash has 145 percent of your daily-recommended vitamin A, and it's one of the top sources for alpha and beta carotene (especially great for eye health). Squash is low in fat and contains a healthy amount of anti-inflammatory omega-3 fats. The vegetable’s energy-sustaining complex carbohydrates and B-vitamins help to balance blood sugar and its vitamin C content helps fight cold and flus.
