Get ready for the autumn harvest everyone. Listed below are some delicious, mouth-watering superfoods that the mouth will crave long before that first bite. Foods such as apples, cranberries and carrots are not just delicious to eat but healthy too. Squash, sweet potatoes and beets serve as a way to cleanse the blood and purify the body; not to mention, they can be pretty tasty too.

Squash or pumkin, anyone?

Squash contains complex carbohydrates and works great in a salad or as an addition to a sandwich. It’s a great source for fiber and beta carotene. Pumpkin has some great attributes too. Pumpkin is one good source of carbohydrates that work to regulate blood sugar. The pumpkin seeds are an excellent source of zinc and protein. Interested in a special tip? Well, cut up the pumpkin into small pieces and add in some salt and olive oil. Once that is done, bake at 350° F until the pumpkin is slightly brown. If you are interested, there is a blog post coming out soon entitled “14 Ways to Enjoy Pumpkin.”
