8 FALL RECIPES for dinner!

Published about 1 month ago • 1 min read

Hi Reader!

As soon as September hits, I dive straight into comfort food recipes. Soups are my "hands down" favorite meals, but anything featuring fall fruits and veggies gets my vote.

Here are some of our "go to" fall recipes. Happy cooking!

Must-make sauce

​Stovetop Apple Butter - Dollop a spoonful over roast chicken or pork, or spread it on grilled turkey sandwiches for an easy meal. 🍎

Main dishes

  1. ​Instant Pot Vegetarian Chili - A 5-star favorite! One reader said, "I’ve made this a few times now, my family prefers it over the chili with ground beef! It’s by far the best vegetarian chili I’ve tried!"
  2. ​Buffalo Chicken Sweet Potato - One reader said, "We made this tonight, it was quick and amazing!" ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
  3. Lentil & Potato Soup - A meal that will satisfy you on the coldest day and is ideal for meal prep.
  4. ​Roasted Vegetables & Chickpea Bowl - I make a batch of this every single week. It's that good! 🧡

Side dishes

  1. ​Maple Pear & Goat Cheese Salad - The ultimate fall salad! This maple pear and goat cheese salad gets rave reviews every time I serve it.
  2. ​Spaghetti Squash with Apples & Toasted Pecans - The recipe that convinced my kids to like spaghetti squash. 😃
  3. ​Grilled Summer Squash Salad - Super simple and oh-so-delicious. Perfect for an early fall side dish.

See you next time!
