There are so many things I love about fall. When it comes to food, roasted winter squash is at the top of my list. I adore its texture, sweet-savory taste, heartiness, and color. This comforting roasted acorn squash with pomegranate glaze and pistachios showcases it all—memorable taste, texture, color, and aroma–with inviting style. And, of course, I gave it my usual Mediterranean-style twist. It’s perfect for the holidays, too.

You can have a bowl of cauliflower or you can have a BOWL of cauliflower! This caramelized roasted cauliflower with pomegranate glaze and lemony tahini sauce is the latter. It’s for when you want to make your meal a bit more special, a bit more flavorful, a bit more colorful, or all of the above. The recipe is full of middle eastern intrigue – as I love finding ways to incorporate my half Lebanese roots into my dishes.

This skillet russet & sweet potato hash with arugula pesto is two recipes in one – both of which are tasty on their own, and even better together! It makes a colorful and hearty brunch side dish, but can be served anytime you wish, of course. Pair it with a protein pick, like plant-based sausage or eggs, and it becomes a truly satisfying meal.

What am I eating right now? This herbed freekeh salad with avocado, pistachios and citrus vinaigrette. I’m absolutely hooked on it — it’s got so many bright flavors, contrasting textures, and yummy things going on. Another cool thing about it is that you can use this as a recipe template and make it hundreds of different ways so you can match the season or use up what you have on hand just by varying the grain and produce picks. But when in doubt, simply make this recipe as is … it’s awesome!
