A variety of pumpkin dishes are especially helpful during Lent. After all, they are easy to prepare, not expensive, hearty, tasty, beautiful and… I almost forgot to mention its benefits! Pumpkin has more carotene than carrots, and it has a lot of vitamin B, and there is even some rare vitamin T, which is necessary for the proper work of metabolic processes in the body.
