Seasoned Greetings and Happy Halloween!
October brings us autumn in all its glory and that means everything from Instant Pot soups to baked goods featuring fall's favorite flavors and everything in between:
Why Do We Cook?
For many, cooking satisfies a deep inner need to create and share nourishing food with precious people in our lives. But it goes even deeper than that: cooking may be a big part of why we are who we are. Find out how we ate our way to becoming a stronger species.
Mediterranean Eggs
Crunchy seasoned croutons team up with sweet tomatoes, baked eggs, and tangy goat cheese to say good morning! A simple baked breakfast or brunch dish is just what you're looking for to help make a lazy weekend morning that's still decadent.
Quick Thai Peanut Dipping Sauce
Whether you are looking for the perfect sauce to pair with your spring rolls or making a batch of Thai noodles, this simple peanut sauce boasts complex flavor and is great for dipping, tossing with noodles, or eating with a spoon!
Instant Pot Potato Leek Soup
October is a great time for hearty soups. When time is running short, let your Instant Pot make quick work of dinner while presenting you with a bowl of creamy soup that tastes like it got to simmer for hours that you didn't have time to give it.
Bring Tomatoes to Life with Fresh Mozzarella
As the last of the season's tomatoes find their way to our tables, remember to pair them with beautiful fresh mozzarella. Whether it's on your favorite pizza or helping you start your day with Italian-Style Shakshouka, this combination is a hit.
Steak Salad with Roasted Vegetables
Bring salad fully into fall in a way that makes it not just a main dish, but a company-worthy offering that is quick, elegant, and downright beautiful on a plate. Put a cornucopia on your table tonight!
Falafel and Hummus Bowls
Get more veggies and plant fiber into your diet without sacrificing flavor with dinner bowls bursting with everything from falafels and hummus to fresh tomatoes and roasted cauliflower. It's a meal that's almost too pretty to eat!
Food Fresh
Get the lowdown on how to keep food from going bad no matter where it's being stored. Everything from pantry staples to freezer storage are covered. Purchase and store your food with confidence with a great infographic on food freshness.
Korean Venison Pepper Stir-Fry
The telltale sweetness of a Korean-inspired marinade brings together sweetened wine and soy sauce with garlic and ginger to pair with tender mushrooms, crisp peppers, and quick-searing steak strips. Venison is great if you have it, but lean beef steak will also work.
Butternut-Tomato-Sage Scones
Lest you think the only iconic flavors of the season involve pumpkin and spice, it's time to make some scones brimming with roasted butternut squash, sun-kissed tomatoes, and autumn's favorite herb: sage. These fall-inspired scones are at home for breakfast, lunch, or dinner!
Chicken Noodle Stir-Fry
As November approaches, it feels like cold and flu season has already arrived. Before you assume chicken noodle soup is your best go-to remedy, consider shaking things up a little by opting for a stir-fry that hits all the right notes when you're under the weather.
