75 Favorite Fall Foods!

Hi! Happy Tuesday!

Did you all have a great Labor Day? Did you send off summer with a most excellent adventure or did you maybe take it slow and simply savor the sun’s warm rays? Are you ready for this post? It may be difficult to say goodbye to summer, but this post is a compilation of some of my very favorite fall and football recipes!

I’m doing something just a teensy bit different today and sharing a collection of some of my all time favorite fall recipes. You can start by making one today and still have plenty left to spread out over the next few months. I debated whether these links would be worthy to use for an entire post. But then, well, I went through my fall favorites and realized that these recipes NEEDED to be re-explored and shared again, so YES these links are worthy of a whole post. I have apples, winter squash, pumpkin, cinnamon, candy, pies, chiles, cheese, caramel, chocolate, brussels sprouts, figs, pomegranates, a roast, pastas galore, chips, dips and breakfasts…basically my 75 favorite fall foods. If you are one of those lucky ones still sweating your butt off, congratulations! For now, set this post aside. When at last you begin to feel those first chills of early fall, come back and revisit this post. Clearly I have been feeling that chill all week, so I am ready.

Alright, so this post? It may be a little premature, but I am a planner… and I am so exited about all the recipes I have listed here. This list is kind of a biggie…so let’s get started.
