Happy Fall Equinox! โจ๐ This piece from The Good Trade has some great thoughts about how to celebrate and shares similar sentiments to my own intentions about the seasonal reset. I hope you find a moment to celebrate the welcome of autumn, clink a mug of warm tea with someone you love, and feel a tickle of fizziness for the new season upon us.
Iโm excited to share about all the fall foodie things today, lots about apples and a recreation of a grilled cheese we had in Maine that I couldnโt stop thinking about. Letโs eat!
Iโm sharing a look at some meals we have been enjoying the past few weeks and some meals on my radar this week (olive oil & date oatmeal!?!). Iโd love to know what fall meals you have been enjoying lately too.
๐ฅ breakfast:
pumpkin wafflesโ while I donโt love pumpkin-scented things or pumpkin drinks I do enjoy pumpkin baked goods and breakfast foods. I also like to make my own pumpkin purรฉe simply for the fun of letting my kids scoop out the pumpkin guts โบ๏ธ but you really do get a lot out of one bitty pumpkin so itโs more economical too. Hereโs the easy method we use (and make sure to roast those seeds).
stovetop oatmealโ topped with sautรฉed cinnamon apples (I save the half-eaten apples leftover by my kids, cube up the good parts, and sautรฉ in coconut oil and cinnamon), walnuts, flax meal, and maple syrup
olive oil date oatmealโ ummmm are you kidding me?! How has this combination not been on my radar yet for oatmeal?!
