Favorite Fall Foods

Fall brings around some of the best fruits, vegetables and dishes of the year.  Things like butternut squash soup, pumpkin bread and fresh honeycrisp apples are just a couple of my favorite season foods.  The flavors are warmer and more comforting and offer me a sense of nostalgia.  The colors of fall produce are colored as vibrantly as the trees with bright red apples and orange, yellow and green root vegetables like pears, squash and potatoes.  Eating seasonally is a major part of sustainable food and is a great way to eat healthier, eat locally and to eat produce at its peak.  I found a great website that can guide you to know what is season week by week that is called Eat the Seasons.

I want to share with you some recipes I've made and have found to be absolutely delicious and some I can't wait to try.  They showcase the season's flavors and will make your whole house smell like a big fat hug.  So please, enjoy.  Enjoy fall for everything it has to offer and don't be too down about summer ending, too stressed out about back to school or even about the upcoming holidays.  Although, I don't blame you for stressing about Brett Favre because he can do that to ya.
