8 Wonderful Winter Squash Recipes To Keep You Warm This Autumn

by Karly Wood
written by Karly Wood

Can we all just stop an acknowledge how amazing the food is in the Fall? One of the best parts about the weather cooling down is all the fresh new produce, and my favorite are all the beautiful winter squash! In case you aren’t super familiar with this seasonal fruit, winter squash take longer to mature and have hard skin. They can be harvested and stored for 3-6 months before eating. Summer squash typically have thinner skin and should be eaten when it’s soft. They cannot be stored for long periods of time.

Now, on to the good stuff. What are some of the winter squashes? Acorn, Butternut (my fav!), Spaghetti, Banana, Sweet Dumpling, Carnival, Delicata and Pumpkin are just a few. There are MANY winter squash and they can all be roasted the same, or made into some seriously delicious recipes. I’ve found some of the best looking winter squash recipes and plan to make them all this autumn and winter!

1. Turkey, Mushroom, Apple Stuffed Acorn Squash

One of the best things about winter squash is the hard skin makes them a perfect “bowl” for all sorts of fillings! Cut open, scoop out the seeds and roast. While they are baking away, you can sautee all sorts of other goodies, like this turkey, mushroom and apple mixture that pairs well with the sweet acorn squash. This is a perfectly healthy dinner that is done in under an hour.

3. Caprese Spaghetti Squash With Roasted Tomatoes

Because of the meaty texture of winter squash, they make a great substitute for pasta or even meat.

Well this spaghetti squash meal steals the show with roasted tomatoes and all the other favorite things you love about caprese.

I pretty much love everything about it, and the food is no exception. To keep me looking forward to the autumn season, I’ve rounded up some of the best looking Fall recipes I could find.

10 Mouthwatering Candy Corn Dessert Recipes

by Leena Kollar
written by Leena Kollar

When you think of orange and yellow and white together, what comes to mind? I bet at this time of year, it’s candy corn. Heck, maybe that’s what comes to mind any time of year! One thing’s for sure, there’s no escaping the colorful triangle treat until the major fall holidays are over. But since we’re smack dab at the beginning-ish of fall, let’s talk about how this tri-colored sweet can bring happiness to our lives.

Well duh, in the form of food and drinks! Candy corn isn’t just for munching on alone. There are lots of creative recipes that will blow your mind! Some are made with actual candy corn, while others just look, smell or taste like it. Sounds like a win all the way around! But you be the judge- how delicious do these candy corn recipes look?

1. Candy Corn Milkshake

Who doesn’t love a creamy milkshake? I don’t think I’ve ever turned one down. And this one, made from Fanta soda and sherbet ice cream, sounds de.lec.table. Even the brisk fall weather can’t stop me from wanting to try this yummy concoction. I’ll take mine without whipped cream, but definitely don’t leave off the sprinkles!

Head over to Ashley Brooke to get the full tutorial and ingredient list.

2. Candy Corn & White Chocolate Cookies

When moms bake with their kids, I bet 99% of the time, they bake cookies. At least that’s the way it is in my house (when baking happens at all, that is). Cookie recipes are generally easy to make, and kids rarely refuse any cookie put in front of them. So grab the kids and get bakin’ with this festive cookie full of fall colored goodness!

You can find all the details about this recipe over at Averie Cooks.

3. Candy Corn Donuts

Whenever I walk past a donut, I feel like it’s calling me. Like it’s saying, “Come on! Pick me up! You know you want to eat me!” And I’m (luckily) pretty good about ignoring that little voice, but I’m not sure I’d do so well if this candy corn donut called out. I think this sweet, circular delight would make a great addition to a breakfast table on Halloween. So maybe I’ll give in and help myself to a delicious donut next time I hear myself being prodded.

If you want to partake in this donut recipe, check it out on Chez CateyLou.

6 Perfect Pumpkin Seed Recipes

by Karly Wood
written by Karly Wood

When I was a kid, I thought that scooping pumpkin seeds out of our carving pumpkins was seriously disgusting. It was more because of the stringy innards of the pumpkin, then it was the actual seed. But it wasn’t until I was an adult that I grew to enjoy them. In the United States, pumpkin seeds are a typical autumn food but in many countries, they are eaten year round. You can toast, salt and roast them and there’s really no wrong way to eat them. Here are some of our favorite recipes.
