Pickled Beet, Arugula & Herbed Goat Cheese Sandwich
I know this probably only appeals to .08% of the population, but I loved this sandwich, mainly because pickled beets are my favorite. The combination of the sweet and tangy pickled beets, the peppery arugula, and the creamy goat cheese is delicious. It's a really well-balanced sandwich that is both healthy and satisfying.

Yellow Eye Bean Soup
These Yellow Eye Beans are from Rancho Gordo. They are amazing heirloom bean producers located in Napa, California. I decided to make this rustic Yellow Eye Bean Soup from The New York Times. These beans are absolutely incredible, and very creamy inside. These beans are rich, creamy, and mild and are traditionally used for New England style baked beans. There is nothing better on a cold night than to have rustic bean soup with some crusty bread.

Parmesan Criss-Cross Sweet Potatoes with Balsamic Glaze
Parmesan Criss-Cross Sweet Potatoes with Balsamic Glaze is a perfect side for your autumn menu. The sweetness of the potatoes really works with the saltiness of the parmesan cheese. I actually forgot to put the balsamic glaze on, so I guess you could say it's optional!

Chile Crisp Fettuccini Alfredo with Spinach
The creamy and subtly spicy Chile Crisp Fettuccini Alfredo with Spinach is outstandingly good. The chili crisp gets sizzled in butter before adding cream and parmesan cheese. Chili crisp is a condiment of oil infused with peppers, onions, and garlic, and is satisfyingly crispy, and crunchy. This recipe will be on repeat.

This Crisp Gnocchi with Brussels Spouts and Brown Butter is incredibly easy to make and also done in a single skillet.

searing the gnocchi until it's crispy and golden on the outside but soft and chewy on the inside. It gets topped with freshly grated Parmesan.
