Autumn Thyme Wedge Salad {with Warm Goat Cheese Fritters}
I made this Autumn Thyme Wedge Salad a couple weeks ago and have been dying to share it with you. It has so many wonderful seasonal flavors that it sings of Autumn Thyme. The star of the salad were the Warm Goat Cheese Fritters. They were so good they deserved their own recipe post (and so delayed the introduction of our newest wedge salad recipe).

Our Butternut Squash, Apple & Sage Stuffed Turkey Tenderloin smiles of Autumn Thyme. Fresh ingredients that play so nicely together. I made this dish for the sole purpose of portioning out lunches for the week. However I’m certain it will become another favorite weeknight meal.

Cheesy Bowtie & Butternut Squash Bake
This Cheesy Bowtie & Butternut Squash Bake was born out of ingredients already on hand. It’s loaded with veggies and I promise you even the youngest members of the family will love this dish. Butternut squash, fresh mushrooms & spinach, an open box of pasta and the end of a hunk of cheddar cheese came together in a snap.

Roasted Sweet Potato & Butternut Squash {with Crispy Sage & Bacon}
I tried to publish this recipe last night but I was struggling and grasping for words. Not that Roasted Sweet Potato & Butternut Squash {with Crispy Sage & Bacon} is complicated or difficult to explain, it’s just that I made it for some friends of mine who frankly have been to hell and back over the past six weeks. Preparing this dish evoked emotion, something I feel has been lacking as of late in my cooking and subsequent blog posts.

Savory Veggie & Herb Egg White Taquitos
Savory Veggie & Herb Egg White Taquitos. And Sunday Brunch or Monday lunch, straight from ingredients already in our fridge and pantry. Typically when I think of ‘Wraps’ I think of a sandwich alternative that consists of meats, cheeses or veggies that are rolled up into a convenient handheld package. Taquitos are that kind of wonderful.

Loaded Butternut Squash Chips
Loaded Butternut Squash Chips. Think loaded potato skins, but better. At least that’s how we felt about them. The hint of sweetness from the butternut squash was soooo good with the savory toppings. These made a fantastic and fun appetizer.

Kale with Sausage, White Beans & Butternut Squash
Kale with Sausage, White Beans & Butternut Squash By now, most everyone is aware that kale comes packed with a bushel of health benefits, even if you’re not quite sure what they are specifically. This would be the time to share that I wanted to be sure I knew before moving on. So I googled ‘health ben’ and before completing the word ‘benefits’…never mind adding the word ‘kale’…I had 2,150,000 results for Health Benefits of Kale. Here’s a link to a quick Top 10 List that is well worth reading. I had no idea.

Roasted Garlic & Butternut Squash Soup {Weight Watchers}
One of my favorite soups is Roasted Garlic & Butternut Squash Soup. Just the sound of it warms me and on a blustery day like today a nice big bowl full is in order. This lightened up version is naturally very low in fat and high in fiber, making it a perfect go-to Weight Watcher recipe.

Beef Tagine with Butternut Squash {B is for Braising}
Santa Claus is quite perceptive. I mean he brought me a Terracotta Tagine for Christmas and it wasn’t even on my list. How did he know?!! Working perfectly into our Winter Thyme Spice Exploration plan, we put that baby to good use tonight. We turned a basic beef stew into a fragrant adventure with this Beef Tagine with Butternut Squash. Paprika, cinnamon, ginger, and cayenne came together with tangy tomatoes and sweet butternut squash to create a BIG flavor sauce. The beef was tender, as slow braised beef should be, and completely infused with Moroccan love. I’m smiling.
