Almost chilly mornings means it’s fall here in Georgia, I don’t make the rules!!
Fall grain bowls with
roasted delicata squash, but it also works well with butternut squash if that’s what you’ve got. Serve over farro with sautéed kale & chickpeas, plus some apple and pecans, and a lovely maple tahini dressing. Great for meal prep, even better for dinner.
FULL RECIPE always on my blog, just search “fall grain bowls”

-1/2 red onion, diced
-1/2 cup chopped parsley
-1/4 cup chopped dill
-1 garlic clove, grated

-1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Cashew cream makes the best pasta sauce! I basically take cashew cream and thin it with reserved pasta water. Add in a fair amount of lemon zest, thawed frozen peas, sun-dried tomatoes, capers, and maybe some vegan parm. It’s good hot or cold!
Here is how to make the cashew cream:
To make the cashew cream, start by soaking raw unsalted cashews in almost boiling water for 15 minutes. This softens the cashews and makes them easier to blend. It also warms up the sauce. Make sure to reserve the soaking water, as it’s added to the cashew cream!
Ingredients:
-1 cup raw unsalted cashews
-1/2 reserved soaking liquid
-1/4 cup lemon juice
-1 tablespoon olive oil
-1/4 teaspoon salt
-3 tablespoons nutritional yeast
