Nutritional values

Mashed potatoes don't always have to be made with plain potatoes. Try making them with pumpkin! It tastes great and provides us with plenty of fiber. And in addition, pumpkin puree provides vitamin A and many plant dyes, which protect the body's cells from damage.

The colourful pumpkin puree also makes a culinary and visual impact when served with fish, meat, and poultry. If you want to save time, you can use pickled pumpkin out of the jar: simply drain it, heat it in a little salted water, and then puree it in a mixer.
