About Pumpkin, canned, with salt
Canned pumpkin is nothing more than cooked, pureed pumpkin, often a dense field-pumpkin variety, sealed in a tin. It is worth not confusing it with sweetened pumpkin-pie filling, which already has sugar and spices added; plain canned pumpkin is unsweetened.
It is a standout for how little it costs in calories: just 34 per 100 grams, with about 3 grams of fiber and an enormous amount of beta-carotene, the orange pigment the body turns into vitamin A. A single serving can supply several times a day's worth of vitamin A, along with potassium and some vitamin C.
Beyond pie, the smooth puree thickens soups, enriches oatmeal and muffins, and can be stirred into pasta sauce. This salted version adds a little sodium, around 240 milligrams per 100 grams; no-salt tins are common.
