Brief Introduction

Quercetin is a plant pigment (flavonoid). It is found in many plants and foods, such as red wine, onions, green tea, apples, berries, Ginkgo biloba, St. John’s wort, American elder, and others. Buckwheat tea has a large amount of quercetin. People use quercetin as a medicine.

Quercetin is used for treating conditions of the heart and blood vessels including “hardening of the arteries” (atherosclerosis), high cholesterol, heart disease, and circulation problems. It is also used for diabetes, cataracts, hay fever, peptic ulcer, schizophrenia, inflammation, asthma, gout, viral infections, chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), preventing cancer, and for treating chronic infections of the prostate. Quercetin is also used to increase endurance and improve athletic performance.

Pumpkins are now in the shops but there can be used for so much more than a Halloween lantern which will just end up in the bin. October is the month of pumpkin recipes here on A Year of Vegan Eats so come back every week for new recipes to make the most out of your pumpkin.

Moroccan Roasted Pumpkin

Method –
1. Pre heat your oven to 200c

3. Add in the onion, paprika, garlic and one tomato, blend until smooth. Add in your second tomato and blend again until smooth.
4. Take your pumpkin and scoop out the seeds. Score the flesh so the sauce can soak in. Pour in the sauce and bake for 30-40 minutes until the flesh is soft.
