Easy Autumn Eats
|
|
My Banana Chia Pudding is creamy and takes advantage of naturally sweet bananas, combined with chia seeds for a perfect, guilt-free fall snack. This pizza is made with a creamy ricotta sauce, sun-dried tomatoes, and crispy kale for a savory and delicious fall twist. My Green Tomato Cake Bread is a super moist and delicious recipe thanks to the tart green tomatoes that create a subtly sweet, spiced fall treat perfect with a warm tea, coffee, or cocktail.

Inspiring Salad Dressings

Plus, you can easily doctor my Basic Dressing to create new dressings—see the recipe for additional suggestions and example salad combinations. You'll never find salad boring again!
