It’s officially October, which means it’s time to make ALL the pumpkin things! I love this time of year so much, and while I’m over here waiting on our first cool front to swing through, I’m pretending it feels like fall with all the cozy recipes. This week we celebrated P’s 4th birthday, decorated the porch with pumpkins and mums, and now I’m officially ready to get cooking in the kitchen with all of my favorite fall recipes. I rounded up a few of my favorite pumpkin recipes and included both savory and sweet options that you are going to love! My top ten pumpkin recipes are definitely going to want to be happening in your kitchen this season.

Banh Mi Meatball Sandwiches

I love Vietnamese food. Lately I can’t stop making dishes with an Asian flare and meatballs happen to be the perfect vessel to infuse with those delicious flavors! One of our favorite Vietnamese dishes is a Bahn Mi Sandwich. It can be made with several different proteins, but I happen to love a pork Bahn Mi the best, especially when topped with quick pickled veggies, spicy jalapeño, and cilantro! It’s a sandwich loaded with flavor and my family can’t get enough of it! I have even made Bahn Mi Tacos in my slow cooker that are so perfect for any weeknight dinner! My new favorite twist on the traditional sandwich, is my Bahn Mi Meatball Sandwich that is perfect for meal prepping and dinners that the whole family will love!

Chicken Shawarma Meatball Bowls

We are meatball obsessed in my house and I am a firm believer that meatballs don’t have to be just for Italian cuisine! I love taking some of my favorite flavors, like chicken shawarma, and turning them into a meatball! I love that meatballs can be prepped in advance, are kid-friendly, and make for an easy dinner any night of the week! Greek flavors in general are some of my favorite and I created a bowl that combines all of my favorites into one dish that makes for the best weeknight dinner! My chicken shawarma meatball bowls are full of flavor and easy to whip up making this recipe ideal for a healthy family friendly dinner!

The Best Chicken Tacos

I am not sure when Taco Tuesday became a thing, but I am totally on board. For one I love tacos (duh), but secondly I love that every week I can use this day as an excuse to make some sort of taco and I don’t have to think about what’s for dinner! The only thing I have to decide is do I want steak tacos, fish tacos, taco salads, or chicken tacos! Not a bad problem to have right? I have been meaning to share my chicken taco recipe and and am finally getting around to it! This recipe is not only full of flavor, but it can be ready in 30 minutes any night of the week! I have created the BEST chicken tacos and you are going to love adding this recipe into your taco rotation!

Grilled Lemon, Shrimp, and Asparagus Orzo Salad

I’ve been thinking of doing a series on grilling this summer because it seems to be a cooking method that a lot of people are intimidated by, when actually it’s quite simple! It just so happens to be one of my favorite ways to prepare food! I love that I can literally throw anything onto the grill and make my whole meal without even turning my oven on, especially when I don’t want to heat up my house in the hotter months! It truly makes easy weeknight cooking that much easier! My grilled lemon, shrimp, and asparagus orzo salad is one of those easy meals that can be prepared on the grill and is perfect for any night of the week or for a weekend BBQ!
