| Happy November, friends! I hope you had a fun Halloween and a lovely first few days of the new month. We had the best time taking the boys trick-or-treating and seeing the first *small* snowfall here in Chicago. The holidays are in the air, which means we're dropping one of my fav things on the blog next week (hint: starts with "gift" and ends with "guides"). Buckle up, these are going to be amazing. November's Recipe of the Month is HERE! This month we're making one of the best side dishes for holidays & weeknight dinners: Cheddar Broccoli Cauliflower Gratin. Add it to your Thanksgiving menu this month, and share a pic or leave a review on the blog for a chance to win this month's prize! Head to this page for all of the deets.
Time to bundle up this week with some nourishing, cozy eats! I've got a savory breakfast, a flavorful fall pasta dish, and a nourishing, plant-based dinner for you. Enjoy!
5 recipes to cook this week Breakfast: Mushroom Spinach Bacon Egg Cups Savory bacon egg cups packed with any veggies you can find in the fridge! I love adding mushrooms and spinach, but have fun customizing with your fav mix-ins. Such a great protein-packed start to your day. 
Lunch: Cilantro Pesto Pasta with Roasted Pumpkin & Honey Beautiful pesto pasta with a wonderful fall twist. You'll get the perfect balance of sweet and savory with roasted pumpkin, a little honey, homemade pesto, and a sprinkle of red pepper flakes. 
Snack: Roasted Garlic Tahini Carrot Dip Say hello to the queen of all savory dips: this roasted carrot dip is filled with warming spices and topped with roasted pistachios, feta, parsley, and a drizzle of pomegranate molasses. Dip whatever your heart desires all week long! 
Dinner: One Pot Butternut Squash Yellow Curry Curry + fall = a match made in heaven. This vegan, veggie-packed yellow curry seriously checks all of the boxes with tender butternut squash and cauliflower simmered in a luscious coconut broth. There are endless ways to serve this perfect dinner! 
Dessert: Salted Brownie Cookies When you can't pick between a fudgy brownie and a chocolate chip cookie? Make my incredible, chewy salted brownie cookies and have yourself a day. I love these warm out of the oven and even straight from the fridge!
