Fresh Fall Produce
There’s so much fresh produce during the fall! What I look forward to most every year are honeycrisp apples. I eat almost three a day because I just can’t get enough! They’re so delicious. But there’s much more yummy goodness in the fall than just fresh apples. Look for the following five items at your local farmers’ market or grocery store, then use them in the five delicious recipes linked below!
1. Corn
From corn mazes to corn on the cob, nothing sounds more like fall. The time corn is harvested varies from year to year, but it’s most frequently harvested in mid-September or early October. Try our fresh corn salad that’s the perfect side dish for any meal!

2. Pumpkins
Whether you want to carve them or eat them, pumpkins are a must in the fall. And forget the cookies! Try our wild rice stuffed mini pumpkins.

3. Broccoli
It’s not always the kids’ favorite, but give this recipe a try. They won’t even know it’s in there!

4. Sweet potatoes
They seem to go right along with Thanksgiving, but why not have them more than once a year? Our mashed orange sweet potatoes are oh so tasty!

5. Apples
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Fall apples are my favorite! They’re so good plain, with peanut butter, or even cooked. You just can’t go wrong. Use your apples in this flavorful apple cider recipe.
