Kale, White Bean & Quinoa Soup
After going home for Thanksgiving I’m on a bit of a vegetarian cook. I guess it makes sense since many of my meals at home were made up of mostly veggies thanks to my dad. I’m not complaining. The past few weeks I’d been eating pretty poorly and my body needed a cleanse of sorts. Strange, usually holiday foods are what cause your body to need a cleanse…

Sweet Potato Gnocchi
I love this twist on traditional gnocchi. The sweet potatoes and whole wheat flour give it a nutty taste, while the ham, mushrooms and sage say, ‘it’s fall!’
Spiced Pumpkin Pie
We make this classic Thanksgiving dessert skinnier by using fat free condensed milk and less sugar. The result — a delicious, cool & creamy dessert!
Metallic Pumpkin Table Design
Decorating your table during the fall is so much easier! The grocery is practically begging you to buy pounds upon pounds of those cute miniature pumpkins and gourds. Just add some candles, pretty plates, napkins, a tasty dinner and great company and you’re set.
Pot Roast
I like to cook this one day before and let it cool in the refrigerator. Once it’s cool, I scrape a good amount of the hardened fat off the top to make it even lighter. Don’t get rid of all of it though, it adds flavor! Serve on top of our roasted garlic mashed potatoes.
Three Bean & Turkey Chili
I love making this on Sunday and let it simmer all afternoon. The house smells great & the chili tastes even better. Try it with our jalapeno cornbread muffins!
Pumpkin Spice Waffles
Anything pumpkin flavored is on the top of my list in the fall. These waffles make for a perfect weekend brunch. Your kids won’t even know that the waffles are good for them!
