About Vegetables

Most of the dark colored vegetables like beets, red onions and carrots contain beta carotene that is essential for good eye sight, skin health and fiber that moves food along during digestion.

Carrots, pumpkins, including acorn squashes also provide anti-oxidants and Vitamins A, C and E. It is said that let food be your medicine. By making good choices you can eat healthy and feel well. You may use vegetables you have at home or buy the vegetables that I have used in this recipe. Adjust the quantity to your taste.

You may serve the vegetables with a side salad or bread.
