November is on the horizon,
and I have been thinking of Thanksgiving
and all the wonderful food, besides turkey,
that is associated with this holiday~
cranberries, stuffing, vegetable casseroles, pumpkin~
Even if you don’t celebrate Thanksgiving,
the recipes on the bucket list this month
are all perfect for late Fall
The flavor/theme of the month is Thanksgiving
You can see photos of these recipes in the November section

The flavor/theme of the month was Butternut Squash and Pumpkin
Butternut Squash Cannelloni with Brown Butter Sage
is simple enough for everyday but also is dinner party worthy

One night we enjoyed Loaded Potato Soup that my son made,
it’s perfect cold weather comfort food!
I discovered a game changing technique for making pasta casseroles,
use refrigerated tortellini or ravioli and you don’t have to boil it first!
This Pumpkin Alfredo Ravioli was a snap to make
I used refrigerated sausage ravioli
and combined jars of alfredo with pumpkin for the sauce
I didn’t get a chance to make any of the side dishes on the bucket list
but I did share a round-up of
10 Fall Side Dishes that Prep in 10 Minutes or Less
I made Apple Pie Cinnamon Rolls from Cook Clean Repeat
2 ingredients and it was Amazing!
Salted Caramel Ice Cream is delicious any time of year,
but in October, serve it with an upside down ice cream cone
and call it Tipsy Witch Salted Caramel Ice Cream
Halloween is only days away,
there is still time to whip up 10 yummy
On to November!
