Have you tried honeynut squash before? Honeynut is a winter squash varietal derived from butternut and buttercup. It’s sweeter and about half the size of the typical butternut squash. The peel is edible which saves a lot of time and work.

This would make an easy side for Thanksgiving! It’s easy enough to spice up a weeknight meal as well!

Are you looking for a plant-based entree for Thanksgiving? Look no further than this stuffed delicata squash with tofu! This dish is vegan and can also be served as a side if you like! If you can’t find delicata squash at the store, you could use another hard (winter) squash such as acorn, butternut, or honeynut as well!

Do you love apple pie and wish you could have it year round?

Well, that’s how I feel and led to the creation of this post. This is way easier than making apple pie. I never really understood the saying “easier as pie”. Whoever originally said that must have been using a pre-made pie crust.

You could certainly omit the brown sugar to make this healthier, but the whole idea is to simulate apple pie!

Do you love oatmeal but don’t have the time to make it every morning? Enter baked oatmeal, a make-ahead oatmeal casserole option.

This is especially great for fall and alternative for those who are not on team pumpkin. I highly recommend adding a dollop of greek yogurt to make this a more filling, balanced meal with carbs + protein. You certainly don’t have to saute the apples beforehand, but this does impart another layer of flavor.

This quick and easy pumpkin dip is the perfect snack while you’re passing out candy to trick-or-treaters this evening. You could also bring this to a fall party for Halloween or Thanksgiving! Be sure to add this to your seasonal recipe collection.
