Fall is my favorite time of the year. I love the changing leaves, the cool, crisp air, the smell of fireplaces and the sound of football (somewhere in the background). But the best part about the fall is the food! Pumpkins and squash and apples and cinnamon – all are fresh and in abundance – and they just smell so good when you cook with them! Now’s the perfect time to start experimenting with some of these ingredients, and who knows, maybe you’ll find a new recipe for Thanksgiving this year. So, why not invite a few friends over for the Pefect Fall Dinner and enjoy the best season of the year.
I scoured the web to come up with the Perfect Fall Dinner menu. Enjoy and send me your favorite fall menus!
