Now that it is November and the evenings are cooler, I have shifted my dinner plans to warmer foods. This week I am planning:
- Split pea soup with added veggies and warm bread
- Baked penne with cashew ricotta and sauteed green beans
- Butternut squash and leek gratin (also with cashew ricotta...I'm hooked!)
- Roasted root veggies with tempeh and farro
To cook: soak the farro in cool water for at least an hour. Bring fresh water to a boil and add farro (1 cup of water for every 1/2 cup of farro) and simmer, partially covered, for 25-30 minutes (or until all liquid is absorbed).
What are some of your favorite fall meals?
