My husband eats a bowl of yogurt with granola every single morning. After years of watching him pour bowls of sugar laden, processed granola that tasted kind of like cardboard, I decided to take things into my own hands and make my own. One of the great things about granola is how versatile it is. I’ve made a tropical granola with dried fruit and macadamia nuts and a granola with maple, cranberry, and crunchy quinoa. This Apple Walnut Granola is my ode to fall.

Fall is officially here and I just harvested the last butternut squash from my garden. And although I do LOVE a good butternut squash soup (like this Thai Butternut Squash Soup), I was looking for something just a little bit different to do with my last butternut squash of the season (well, at least my last home grown butternut squash). Enter Butternut Squash Fries with Sriracha Mayo. Because vegetables should not be complicated.

Today we have something very special for you!
For this Good Food Reads, we are going to feature a guest recipe by the wonderfully talented Lesli Schwartz of Asian Caucasian, who I had the pleasure of meeting at the Pinch of Yum Tasty Food Photography Workshop I attended this summer. The chosen guest recipe was for Easy Spiced Pumpkin Coconut Soup which was a huge hit in my house! Read on so I can tell you why! (and enjoy the photos by Asian Caucasion-well, with the exception of the one of my little, that one is all mine!)

I had started out writing this post with a joke about pumpkin spiced everything this time of year but honestly, it just doesn’t feel right in light of all that is happening with the world. My heart is so heavy for the people of Las Vegas, Puerto Rico, Mexico, and everyone that feels less than or afraid everyday single day simply because of the color of their skin or their gender or who they choose to love. Sometimes it seems silly to write about things like baked goods when there are so many more important things we could be talking about. As I thought more about how to start this post, I realized that food is often a comfort – and not just in the eating of it. Food, for me, is so often about community. People coming together to share a meal and fellowship is one of the great joys and comforts of my life and I think community and comfort are things we can all use right now. With that in mind, I’m going to write about pumpkin bread today. And then I’m going to make a good cup of tea and sit down with those I love and eat. …
Fall. Autumn. Football Season. Whatever you call this gorgeous leaf color changing season, it is here-in all of it’s glory. Last week was 90 degrees here in Minneapolis, and this week is sixty degrees, windy and rainy. Fall has arrived. With fall comes so many of my favorite things! Back to school, comfort food, sweaters…blankets on the side lines of the kids’ soccer games. With back to school, though, comes the busy schedule. And with the busy schedule you need easy weeknight meals-like this One Skillet Apple Bourbon Pork Tenderloin!
We were also lucky enough to be included in the Fall Festival Blog Tour, so below we are featuring links to a whole week’s worth of fall recipes and fall decor!

I’ve been craving vegetables lately, and that is a little odd. Although I was a vegetarian for a year or two, (many, many years ago), I can honestly say that vegetables are not anywhere on my cravings list (I won’t lie, that is the list that starts and ends with chocolate. And wine.) My local grocery store has started carrying spiralized vegetables and every time I go into the store I’m drawn to their amazing colors…and then I keep walking.
Truth be told I even OWN a spiralizer. And it’s never been out of the box. I own a cookbook to go with it (that I’ve never opened). All of that changed this weekend with these Butternut Squash Noodles Alfredo….
