Fall is finally here! Although it doesn’t feel like the seasons have changed, we’re still gearing up for all things pumpkin-spiced. That’s why we’ve compiled a list of fall favorites to make your next dinner party legendary.

No Churn Apple Crisp Ice Cream

There is no better way to start a party than by eating dessert first. That’s why we put it on the top of our list! This easy-to-whip-up ice cream is refreshing and crisp. Save this dessert idea for when you go apple picking.

Fall Sangria

Let’s get this party started with a Fall Sangria! Like winter sangria, this festive beverage has warm notes of cinnamon and bourbon to spice up the crowd and pair nicely with any fall dish.

Mediterranean Chicken and Faro

Next on the list is the main event. This fragrant chicken is a fall favorite consisting of dates and pomegranates that your guests will love. The chicken is a harmonious blend of sweet and savory and will pair nicely with various side dishes and the fall sangria.

Pumpkin Bread

Pumpkin bread is a staple for any fall-themed meal. It will be a wonderful combination with the apple crisp ice cream, or even as a side with your main course. It’s easy to make and a must-have on your fall table!

  • ⅔ cup chocolate chips / flaked coconut / chopped nuts (optional)

  2. Peel the bananas and place them in a small bowl, then use a fork to mash until you get a smooth paste.
  3. Add the nut butter, maple syrup, cinnamon, salt, ground almonds, and oats to the same bowl.
  4. Mix well, adding a tiny splash of milk if it’s looking too dry.
  5. Leave the mixture for 10 minutes to allow the oats to soak. 
  6. Transfer the mixture into a baking tin lined with greased baking paper. 
  7. Scatter over the chocolate chips, coconut, or chopped nuts and press them down into the batter.

Everyone loves some good hummus, but not everyone likes theirs the same way. There are plenty of ways to vary a hummus recipe. Here’s how to get yours to your exact preference.

The Main Components

To make basic hummus, you simply need to blend chickpeas with tahini in a food processor. Then add in crushed garlic, lemon juice, ice-cold water, and salt. The measurements of each ingredient, however, are up to you.

Smooth Hummus

If you want your hummus to be silky smooth so that you can effortlessly glide a cracker through it, simply add more ice water to the mixture to give it a more runny consistency.

Chunky Hummus

If you are more of a chunky hummus person, you want there to be less water in your mixture so that it will be more of a thick paste. You can even add in some whole chickpeas if you want.

Tahini

If you’re all about the flavor, adding more tahini to the mix will give your hummus a rich, creamy taste.

Lemon Juice

If you’re the type of person who likes a bit of extra sourness, squeeze some more lemon juice in for more of a zingy taste.

Garlic

And if you want your hummus to have a bit of a bite to it, throw in more garlic.

Air fryers are having a moment, and more and more people are getting in on the trend. It’s no longer about making the simple foods you normally make in the oven—people are getting inventive and these dishes will help you to start making more interesting meals. Here are four foods you need to cook in your air fryer.

Brussel Sprouts

As Thanksgiving is around the corner, there are so many recipes for Brussel Sprouts and those made in the air fryer are extra special. You can add bread crumbs, balsamic vinegar, parmesan, olive oil, garlic, and rosemary. There are so many flavors to try that you will be spoilt for choice.

Pasta

Yes pasta, this trend turns pasta into chips by putting them in the air fryer. You can add anything to them to spice up the flavor, herbs, spices, and some cheese, and they will make a great addition to dips and salsas.

Stuffed Sweet Potatoes

Just like you would make them in an oven, you can now make these delicious sides with any stuffing you want. Add some bacon, cheese, sauces, or vegetables of your choice. You need to bake them in the air fryer until they are tender, then cut them in half lengthways, scoop out the middles, and add them to a bowl with whatever fillings you desire. Then put them back in the air fryer to cook!

Air Fried Meatballs

There are so many ways to make meatballs—you can put them on the stove or in the oven, and now you can put them in your air fryer and make them even tastier. You can make them from beef, chicken, turkey, or pork and add some sweet and sour, sweet and spicy, or spicy sauces. Whatever way you enjoy your meatballs, there is a recipe out there for you!

The past year has seen most of us spending more time indoors, and more specifically—in the kitchen. But cooking can be a daunting task, and some recipes out there are quite labor-intensive. Luckily for us, there are those who offer a helping hand when it comes to working our way through the kitchen.

Recipe developer, food stylist, and cookbook author Dana Shultz is one of those guardian angels. The mastermind behind the successful food blog-turned viral Instagram page, Minimalist Baker, her goal is to make cooking a lot more easier and approachable.

“All eaters are welcome,” reads her website’s caption, as she invites the most novices of cooks to take a (tiny) leap of faith. The idea is simple: Shultz shares recipes that require 10 ingredients or less, 1 bowl, or 30 minutes or less to prepare. The meals vary (from savory to sweet) and most are plant-based. Shultz also shies away from fancy/expensive ingredients.

“Minimalist Baker was born out of a desire to make simple cooking available to the everyday cook—like me,” explained the recipe developer in an interview with Portland Monthly. “I would go and look at recipes on blogs and was generally evaluating whether or not I’d make the recipes based on how much time, equipment, and number of ingredients they required. I wanted simple, and it wasn’t there.”

Shultz’s intuition—that there’s a market for simple recipes—proved correct, and these days her fanbase on Instagram alone is staggering (some 2 million followers to date, and counting!).

“Our plans include continuing to perfect and improve what we already do on Minimalist Baker, which is to provide simple, plant-based recipes that are mind-blowingly delicious,” says Shultz. “If we can keep doing that, I think there will always be a place for us in the internet world and beyond.”

Get cooking! You have no excuse!

Basil’s garnish characteristics make for a great Pesto. But is blending the only way you can put it to use? Sidestep the sauce for once, and enjoy these non-pesto options you can create with a fresh bunch of this versatile herb.  

Bring the Mint into Your Frittata Breakfast

Scatter freshly chopped basil to your Frittata. It’ll give you a fragrance of herb and mint complexity to your whisk-and-bake breakfast dish. Pair it with tender potatoes and two kinds of cheese (Ricotta and Gruyere) for a potato basil Frittata.

Dress Up Your Spatchcocked Chicken with the Freshness

Make your basil butter by pureeing two cups of fresh leaves with a blend of butter, garlic, and lemon zest. Rub it on the chicken and roast it in your oven. The souped-up butter will make it crispy, brown, and flavorful.

How about a Basil Drink Infusions?

Imagine having the fan-favorite Italian lemonade mixed with basil syrup? Use one bunch of basil and combine it with sugar and water. Simmer until the sugar is dissolved to make the syrup. Cool the syrup and stir into your favorite cocktail. You can store the excess in the refrigerator.

With more than 195k followers on Instagram, Nicole Cogan has established herself as the gluten-free guru. Her online platform, titled aptly NOBREAD, is a guide to the best gluten-free dishes around the world, delicious recipes, and Cogan’s favorite wellness tips and tricks.

According to Cogan, her brand came to be after discovering a gluten allergy in 2009 and, later, being diagnosed with Celiac Disease. She therefor took it upon herself to change the way restaurants catered to customers with gluten allergies and other dietary restrictions by outlining their gluten-free options and accommodations.

https://www.instagram.com/p/CFpVo7jHF2B/

But what began as a passion project out of personal convenience quickly turned into a full-time career. Based in Los Angeles, Cogan’s platform has been featured in the Wall Street Journal, Buzzfeed, Tasting Table, and several other publications. Now also a TV host, Cogan’s current hosting responsibilities include CBS’s This is LA, and appearances on The Dr. Oz Show and NBC’s New York Live.

“There is a greater purpose to NOBREAD,” writes Cogan on her website. “It is a message I hope to really start emphasizing going forward. YOU CAN STILL LIVE A HEALTHY, HAPPY (and gluten-free life) while having FUN. Let loose and eat those crispy gluten-free French fries when you are out (in moderation), and at your next meal, stick with something home-cooked and simply prepared.”

Clearly, Cogan’s motto of “just because your life has to be affected, doesn’t mean your lifestyle has to be,” resonates with her many (many!) followers.

As Thanksgiving is around the corner, there are so many recipes for Brussel Sprouts and those made in the air fryer are extra special. You can add bread crumbs, balsamic vinegar, parmesan, olive oil, garlic, and rosemary. There are so many flavors to try that you will be spoilt for choice.

Pasta

Yes pasta, this trend turns pasta into chips by putting them in the air fryer. You can add anything to them to spice up the flavor, herbs, spices, and some cheese, and they will make a great addition to dips and salsas.

Stuffed Sweet Potatoes

Just like you would make them in an oven, you can now make these delicious sides with any stuffing you want. Add some bacon, cheese, sauces, or vegetables of your choice. You need to bake them in the air fryer until they are tender, then cut them in half lengthways, scoop out the middles, and add them to a bowl with whatever fillings you desire. Then put them back in the air fryer to cook!

Air Fried Meatballs

There are so many ways to make meatballs—you can put them on the stove or in the oven, and now you can put them in your air fryer and make them even tastier. You can make them from beef, chicken, turkey, or pork and add some sweet and sour, sweet and spicy, or spicy sauces. Whatever way you enjoy your meatballs, there is a recipe out there for you!

The past year has seen most of us spending more time indoors, and more specifically—in the kitchen. But cooking can be a daunting task, and some recipes out there are quite labor-intensive. Luckily for us, there are those who offer a helping hand when it comes to working our way through the kitchen.

Recipe developer, food stylist, and cookbook author Dana Shultz is one of those guardian angels. The mastermind behind the successful food blog-turned viral Instagram page, Minimalist Baker, her goal is to make cooking a lot more easier and approachable.

“All eaters are welcome,” reads her website’s caption, as she invites the most novices of cooks to take a (tiny) leap of faith. The idea is simple: Shultz shares recipes that require 10 ingredients or less, 1 bowl, or 30 minutes or less to prepare. The meals vary (from savory to sweet) and most are plant-based. Shultz also shies away from fancy/expensive ingredients.

“Minimalist Baker was born out of a desire to make simple cooking available to the everyday cook—like me,” explained the recipe developer in an interview with Portland Monthly. “I would go and look at recipes on blogs and was generally evaluating whether or not I’d make the recipes based on how much time, equipment, and number of ingredients they required. I wanted simple, and it wasn’t there.”

Shultz’s intuition—that there’s a market for simple recipes—proved correct, and these days her fanbase on Instagram alone is staggering (some 2 million followers to date, and counting!).

“Our plans include continuing to perfect and improve what we already do on Minimalist Baker, which is to provide simple, plant-based recipes that are mind-blowingly delicious,” says Shultz. “If we can keep doing that, I think there will always be a place for us in the internet world and beyond.”

Get cooking! You have no excuse!

Basil’s garnish characteristics make for a great Pesto. But is blending the only way you can put it to use? Sidestep the sauce for once, and enjoy these non-pesto options you can create with a fresh bunch of this versatile herb.  

Bring the Mint into Your Frittata Breakfast

Scatter freshly chopped basil to your Frittata. It’ll give you a fragrance of herb and mint complexity to your whisk-and-bake breakfast dish. Pair it with tender potatoes and two kinds of cheese (Ricotta and Gruyere) for a potato basil Frittata.

Dress Up Your Spatchcocked Chicken with the Freshness

Make your basil butter by pureeing two cups of fresh leaves with a blend of butter, garlic, and lemon zest. Rub it on the chicken and roast it in your oven. The souped-up butter will make it crispy, brown, and flavorful.

How about a Basil Drink Infusions?

Imagine having the fan-favorite Italian lemonade mixed with basil syrup? Use one bunch of basil and combine it with sugar and water. Simmer until the sugar is dissolved to make the syrup. Cool the syrup and stir into your favorite cocktail. You can store the excess in the refrigerator.

With more than 195k followers on Instagram, Nicole Cogan has established herself as the gluten-free guru. Her online platform, titled aptly NOBREAD, is a guide to the best gluten-free dishes around the world, delicious recipes, and Cogan’s favorite wellness tips and tricks.

According to Cogan, her brand came to be after discovering a gluten allergy in 2009 and, later, being diagnosed with Celiac Disease. She therefor took it upon herself to change the way restaurants catered to customers with gluten allergies and other dietary restrictions by outlining their gluten-free options and accommodations.

But what began as a passion project out of personal convenience quickly turned into a full-time career. Based in Los Angeles, Cogan’s platform has been featured in the Wall Street Journal, Buzzfeed, Tasting Table, and several other publications. Now also a TV host, Cogan’s current hosting responsibilities include CBS’s This is LA, and appearances on The Dr. Oz Show and NBC’s New York Live.

“There is a greater purpose to NOBREAD,” writes Cogan on her website. “It is a message I hope to really start emphasizing going forward. YOU CAN STILL LIVE A HEALTHY, HAPPY (and gluten-free life) while having FUN. Let loose and eat those crispy gluten-free French fries when you are out (in moderation), and at your next meal, stick with something home-cooked and simply prepared.”

Clearly, Cogan’s motto of “just because your life has to be affected, doesn’t mean your lifestyle has to be,” resonates with her many (many!) followers.
