This apple cider cauliflower soup with hazelnut parmesan gremolata is easy, elegant, and perfect for fall! I did a major freezer clean out the other day, in preparation for the new baby. Gotta make room for all those make-ahead meals, not to mention all that breast milk! I got rid of so much ...
Caramel Applesauce Cake
This simple, homey caramel applesauce cake is the ultimate fall dessert! With a new baby due in a few short months, I've officially entered the freezer-stocking mode of pregnancy. All I want to do is make soup and bake things and then squirrel them away for later. So with a batch of homemade ...
Homemade Caramel Applesauce
This simple, five-ingredient homemade caramel applesauce is a delicious fall indulgence! We are swimming in apples over here! Last weekend we took Owen to a fall festival at Harvest Moon Orchard. We thought it was going to be a small town country affair with cider donuts, a pumpkin patch, ...
Cinnamon Apple Turnip Soup
This soup is all about turnip deliciousness. Um, you guys? I'm embarrassed. I realized the other day that I didn't have a single recipe for turnips on my blog. Hello? It's my namesake vegetable. But even besides that, I love turnips. They have a really fresh, sweet, almost minty ...

Indian Apple, Tomato and Radish Salad
This salad… You guys, I might need an intervention. I've made it three times in the past week, and that's not including the first time I had it, which was at my mother-in-law's house. It's from the latest issue of Cooking Light. When I first saw it, I flipped right past. I thought the combination ...
Hazelnut Apple Pear Crisp
Let's just say I've been around the block with apple crisp. I make it multiple times each fall and winter, and I even keep bags of prepared topping in the freezer to have at the ready. I thought I knew everything there was to know about it. But a couple of weeks ago, I was invited to a baking class ...
Apple, Corn and Butternut Squash Soup with Curry
Ah, this soup. It's been a favorite of mine, in one iteration or another, for years. But there is a small problem with it, which prevented me from doing a post on it last fall, and which almost prevented me from posting it today. The truth is, it's not the prettiest color. Beneath that swirl of ...
Two Yolk Apple Quinoa Frittata
You guys, I realized that I've been holding out on you. I like to think that I post "real" food on my blog--the same dishes that my family eats for dinner, the same cookies we treat ourselves to for dessert. And that's definitely true. But there are also things we eat all the time that I have never ...
Whole Wheat Blueberry Apple Rhubarb Crisp
I don't mean to eschew responsibility, but I swear sometimes desserts just happen in our house. I wasn't planning to bake anything last Friday, but I had a pint of blueberries in the fridge along with a few leftover stalks of rhubarb, and there were some green apples in the fruit bowl… before I knew ...
