Baked Pumpkin Bolognese

Baked Pumpkin Bolognese

A warming winter recipe much like a Shepherd's Pie but with sweet, buttery pumpkin slices instead of mashed potato. Pumpkin is rich in antioxidants, such as alpha-carotene, beta-carotene and beta-cryptoxanthin and lutein and zeaxanthin. These antioxidants support your immune system, improve eye health, and lower inflammation.
