Summer is officially over & my love-hate relationship with fall has begun.
Now don’t get me wrong, I adore fall. It’s the prettiest, coziest & most fashion-friendly time of year! You can light those candles without people getting mad because it is already so hot; you can pull out all those pretty sweaters that you’ve been dying to wear & make all the soups to your life’s content! & don’t forget being choked with all the pumpkin spice everything you could possibly want. Now, why is it a love-hate relationship? Because Winter follows. Period.
But I digress…let’s get back to the food! Fall is definitely the season for food – yummy soups, hearty meals & all the comfort you need!
I have rounded up some of my tried & true favourite autumn-y meals & some new ones I cannot wait to try! Come along with me on this cozy + tasty ride!

PUMPKIN RISOTTO WITH GOAT CHEESE + DRIED CRANBERRIES

THAI PEANUT CHICKEN + PUMPKIN CURRY WITH STICKY POMEGRANATE RICE

This one is for the people. Not for me, but the people. It’s one of the prettiest meals, but it has peanuts, and I am allergic. If anyone can help me with an alternative so I can indulge in this pretty meal, please let me know! Also – please make this for me & tell me how glorious it is. Thank you!
