Happy first day of fall! This is my favorite time of year, as the desert cools off but is still plenty warm for enjoying the outdoors, and tourist season winds down at the lake. Everything feels peaceful and life just quiets down. In addition to fall weather, I do enjoy cozy fall produce and comforting meals.
In celebration of the end of summer and beginning of autumn, we have both fall and summer-inspired meals so you can make the most of the produce section and get lots of variety in your diet. On the menu this week: Spaghetti Squash with Cashew Alfredo, Easy Greek Salad Bowls, Vegetarian Sweet Potato Chili, Enchilada Stuffed Peppers with Avocado Cream, and Roasted Vegetable Teriyaki Bowls.
Enjoy your weekend, Day 1 of Autumn, and this week’s healthful meal plan!
