*~*~*Fall Recipes*~*~*

I missed Meal Plan Monday this week but it's the first day of fall! So what fall foods are you looking forward to making/eating this season? (This can serve as a general thread to collect recipe recommendations for fall/Thanksgiving food plans as we get closer to that!)

My absolute favorite fall meal is *SO* quick and easy. Pumpkin purée, chicken stock (vegetable stock if you want it vegetarian/vegan), thyme, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Combine all that to make a delicious pumpkin soup. Make it as thick or thin as you like with more or less stock. It’s extra delicious with buttered toast or grilled cheese sandwiches.

@sheviolentlyknits that sounds wonderful. I may add that in to my plan for next week. 

I have a pumpkin bar recipe that I'm planning to make soon and also pinned some soup recipes on Pinterest over the weekend. I just need to actually make them.

I finally found canned pumpkin! So I need to start hunting for good pumpkin treats to make. We made apple crisp this last weekend after going to the apple orchard but it wasn’t my favorite, I’ll do a different recipe next time.

@sheviolentlyknits Yum that sounds so good!

I got my SO to get some canned pumpkin this week and I want to make pumpkin pancakes this weekend, but also really have been wishing I had some pumpkin bread around the house during weekdays. And this isn't the most exciting but I saw a recipe for pumpkin spice oatmeal that sounded cozy, I'm a pretty big oatmeal person in the fall. Last year we got a bunch of apples at an orchard and made some amazing apple butter and a couple other things but I think this year will be more pumpkin-focused!

We also usually do a few things in the crockpot like chili and beef stew but we haven't looked into recipes yet this season.

Last night we made apple sauce!
1. Peel, core, chop apples
2. Put in large pot over med/low heat covered
3. Occasionally mix until it looks like apple sauce 😂

And not necessarily fall, but this is the best pancake recipe I've found and we made some this morning 🧡

I didn't get to do pumpkin pancakes this weekend but we got even more involved and made a pumpkin cognac cheesecake (we skipped the almonds). It's delicious! We froze most of it so we can just have it when the mood strikes.
