Carrots are another autumn food that deserves special mention. Crunchy and sweet, they are ideal for healthy snacks, but can also be used in main dishes and side dishes.

Besides their unmistakable flavor, autumn foods bring a range of nutritional benefits to your diet:

Vitamins and Minerals
Apples, pumpkins, and beets are rich in vitamins, such as vitamin C, and essential minerals, including potassium and iron.
