πŸ‚ 15 Healthy Fall Dinners


Hi Reader,

I’ve officially transitioned over to my fall morning ensemble: stretchy pants (living in these), a fleece sweater (IYKYK), and Muk-Luks (⬅️ great holiday gift idea!)

I will wear this combination, or some variation of it, 4-5 mornings a week until April. πŸ˜†

It's also the perfect ensemble to wear while whipping up then devouring these 15 fall recipes that also "fall" (har) into the healthy dinner category. From veggie-packed soups to easy skillet dinners, each cozy recipe delivers comfort food without the oof!

bowl of chicken noodle soup

Hi Reader! We’ve made it to the β€œcool and crisp mornings and evenings” portion of the program here in central Iowa, which means I’ve been breaking out my beloved soup recipes.
