Pears are the underestimated fall fruit in my opinion. I feel like all I hear about are apples and pumpkin at this time of year, but I am here to change that mindset friends because pears are glorious right now and I can’t get enough! Sure they are delicious on their own as a snack, but when you use them to make delicious fall baked goods…well now you are onto something special! This is the time of year when I get the baking bug and I find myself wanting to bake all the cozy goods and have my house smelling of warm and inviting spices from now until Christmas. That’s why I partnered with Tony Chachere’s to bring you the coziest Thanksgiving dessert that you are going to want add to your holiday menu. My Spiced Pear Skillet Cake is not only super easy to make thanks to Tony Chachere’s Creole Hush Puppy Mix, but it’s also beautiful and full of flavor too!

Sweet potato casserole is one of those classic Thanksgiving sides that everyone has come to expect around the table. Traditionally it is made sweet to a point that it could almost pass as dessert. If this is your kind of sweet potato casserole, I’ve got you covered. However, if this is not your cup of tea, because you aren’t down with a side dish that could pass as a dessert, I also have you covered. I created a savory twist on the classic sweet potato casserole and I can tell you that you are going to love serving this dish up alongside that gorgeous turkey. My savory chipotle sweet potato casserole with a sourdough sage pecan bread crumb topping is sure to have your friends and family delighted this holiday season.

Homemade chicken stock is one of those recipes, that until you finally make your own, you don’t realize what a huge difference in flavor it can make to recipes of all kinds! I will admit I always have store bought stock on hand for emergencies, but my preferred way is to make sure to make a batch of homemade chicken stock almost weekly to use in recipes throughout the week. Homemade stock is so nourishing and full of nutrients. It’s a great way to use up any veggies that are looking a little less than perfect hanging out in the kitchen too. My easy homemade chicken stock and is going to become one of your favorite fridge and freezer staples and the recipe couldn’t be any easier to make!

Is it really Halloween in two weeks? I have no idea where October is slipping off to. Life has been so crazy with work and personal stuff that the weeks are passing by at a scary pace! I can’t believe we are almost into full blown holiday season mode. With the holidays, comes lots of baking right? Well for me anyway it does. I just so happen to have a few recipes that I make over and over again, and one of them is my sheet pan pumpkin bars! They are always a crowd pleaser and couldn’t be any easier to make! I will most definitely be making a batch of these for Halloween this year as well as for the rest of the holiday season! My sheet pan pumpkin bars are sure to become one of your new favorite dessert recipes!

Fall is here and it’s time to break out those slow cookers y’all! I honestly always forget how much I love my slow cooker until I use it and realize just how easy it makes weeknight dinners. I know Instant Pots are all the rage, but I just can’t stop using my slow cooker. There is something about the smell of cozy food cooking all day long and filling the house with delicious smells that just makes me so happy. One of the recipes I make the most in my slow cookers is a classic pot roast. This is a meal that my mom made me growing up and it happens to be one of my husband’s favorite fall meals! My Easy Slow Cooker Pork Roast is full of flavor, easy to make, and you can make multiple meals out of it for the whole week.
