This recipe is great for cool, fall morning meal or any time of the year. Pumpkin is high in beta-carotene, an important antioxidant, and a precursor to vitamin A. This dish provides almost your entire daily value of vitamin A. Current research shows that a diet rich in beta-carotene foods can help enhance the function of your immune system, may reduce the risk of developing certain kinds of cancer, and may offer protection from heart disease.


Cooking the oatmeal in milk rather than water increases the amount of protein and calcium in your meal. We've added some dried nonfat powdered milk to boost the protein and calcium even more. Vicki
