Harvest Flavors to Reach For This Fall

Skillet Butternut Squash Lasagna

When thinking about fall, most people think about the crisp, cool weather, football games, and colorful leaves, but if you’re like me—the things you look forward to the most are the fall flavors!

The comforting flavors of fall are not only delicious, but as a Registered Dietitian, I love them because they are packed full of nutrition, as well. For example, did you know that just one cup of pumpkin offers 200% of your recommended daily intake of vitamin A? You’ll need that for eyesight as the days get darker earlier!
