๐ŸŽ 15 recipes to make in September


Hi Reader,

Itโ€™s been a gorgeous week with cool mornings and evenings so weโ€™ve been able to open the windows and doors to air the house out.

Bliss! ๐Ÿคฉ

Even grocery shopping has been more enjoyable than usual with early fall produce filling the aisles. My kids and I have been picking a new-to-us grape variety each week to try โ€” tear drop, autumn crisp, cotton candy, gum drops โ€” who knew there were so many wonderful types of grapes at our fingertips?!

That said, itโ€™s time to start thinking fall, and all the fun produce coming our way. Butternut squash, apples, kale, spaghetti squash, sweet potatoes, cauliflower โ€” the list goes on and on.

Today Iโ€™m sharing recipes that take advantage of the early fall fruits and veggies that are ripe and ready to start using right now.

Do you see something new, or an old favorite to try?

bowl of chicken noodle soup

Hi Reader! Weโ€™ve made it to the โ€œcool and crisp mornings and eveningsโ€ portion of the program here in central Iowa, which means Iโ€™ve been breaking out my beloved soup recipes.
