Carrot Souffle

Carrot souffle is my aunt's signature dish at Thanksgiving dinner and has quickly become a family favorite. The sweet carrots and a pinch of cinnamon are a delicious comfort food during the chilly winter months. The best part about this dish is it's super easy to make with a food processor and makes quite a statement as a puffed up soufflé when served directly out of the oven. 

Fennel & Apple Salad

Fennel is one of my favorite ingredients to use with pasta, pizza or a salad. Although this vegetable can look slightly intimidating at the grocery store, fennel is very easy to prepare and the sweet anise flavor is a perfect addition to some of your favorite dishes. In this salad the fennel paired with a sweet apple, crunchy celery and a tangy dressing has become my go-to for lunch. 

Broccoli Cheddar Soup

A bowl of broccoli cheddar soup is the perfect comforting dish on a cool Fall day. For lunch or dinner this soup is a must try and super easy to make. You can customize this soup by using your favorite cheddar or white cheddar cheese and leaving the broccoli in chunks if you prefer a hearty soup. 

Broccoli Pasta Salad

Looking for a quick and easy lunch recipe? This broccoli pasta salad is super easy to make by cooking the pasta and broccoli together (genius). With some toasted pine nuts, Parmesan cheese, and fresh lemon I could seriously eat this pasta salad every day for lunch. You can choose your favorite type of noodle and also try a whole wheat pasta for a healthier option.
