Our recipe is a fusion with Middle Eastern tahini that pairs wonderfully with our Kale chips.

Notes
Pumpkins are rich in Vitamin A, C, and E, which help to build immunity to diseases. They are also high in fiber which is good for the digestive system. Pumpkin seeds, specifically, are rich in protein and omega-3 fatty acids which can help to lower cholesterol levels. Pumpkins are not only delicious but they are good for you too!
