Pumpkin Can Spice up Your Low-Carb Eating

Pumpkin Can Spice up Your Low-Carb Eating By Laura Dolson It's that time of year when pumpkins are everywhere - at the market, in people's yards, and at the schools. Happily, pumpkins are great for low-carbers because they are packed with nutrients, but the carbs are lower than many other squashes. Keep a few cans around all year long for quick soups and "cereal". Pumpkin is Soo Good For Us!    It's delicious, allowed on Atkins Induction, and can be used in everything from main dishes to deserts.
