    This weekend marked the unofficial start of fall in my mind. My husband and I took a trip to the North Shore of Minnesota, and although the leaves haven’t changed yet, the crispness in the air convinced me that autumn is on its way.

    Saturday brought rain and fog, but that didn’t stop us from visiting Bent Paddle Brewery, Vikre Distillery, Northern Waters Smokehaus, and some other local spots!

    On Sunday, we visited Split Rock Lighthouse on Lake Superior, and took in this beautiful view on the most gorgeous early fall day.

    Before we headed back to the Cities, we stopped at Gooseberry for a hike around the falls. It’s cold and rainy in Minneapolis today, but revisiting the photos from this weekend makes me excited for the beautiful days we have ahead!

    With a new season comes new recipes, and I have so many tasty ones in store for all of you! I’m looking forward to using the Minnesotan staples, wild rice and maple syrup, that I picked up on our trip this weekend. Stay tuned for seasonal eats that will make you just as excited for sweater weather as I am!

    Now on to today’s recipe…

    Apples, root vegetables, squash, and more are popping up at the farmers markets. Today I was inspired to use a medley of these early fall staples to create a delicious dish. I even found a way to incorporate that maple syrup I mentioned! The final product is bursting with flavor, fiber, and a touch of sweetness. It’s perfect for lunch or as a side dish for dinner.

    So go on, give it a try!

      My hubby, the vegan, absolutely loved this recipe! Instead of the squash which we could not find in our area, I used a large sweet potato that we had on hand. I also added some Craisins for chewiness. Will definitely make this again!

      This was filling, delicious and easy! Plus, I learned what a delicata squash is. I hadn’t ever bought one or eaten one before. Thanks for enlarging my veggie repertoire!
