Mapled Squash & Sauteed Mushroom Fall Salad
Alright, my last couple posts were fall in a mug and fall in a bowl (well, I guess my bowl was really a giant mug. Technicality.) Now fall on a plate! I had originally titled this my “Beckoning Fall Salad,” because I planned to post it last week when the weather was still bright and…

Onion Soup Almond Dip
Remember that awesome dip where you take a packet of powdered french onion soup and mix it into a giant tub of sour cream? Delicious, right? Really unhealthy, right? Kind of makes you feel gross after you eat it, right? Probably because you somehow downed half a tub of sour cream…

I have been meaning to share this recipe for a really long time. I think I first tried it right around the same time I started the blog. But to me, chai tea lattes are a fall and winter treat. So I’ve been waiting. And now it’s finally time!
