๐ Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins, Vintage Fall Printables... and more!
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip MuffinsYou only need one bowl and 5 minutes to have these pumpkin chocolate chip muffins ready for the oven. They are packed with fall flavors and a bit of chocolate for the perfect autumn treat! I love to make these in bulk and freeze them so I can set them out to thaw the night before I want to enjoy them (which is often, to be honest!). Make these today and you won't regret it! โ Free Vintage Printables for FallI love customizing my home with seasonal printables. They are free, simple, and a great way to add flair with very little effort! For fall, these vintage drawings of harvest, flowers, and animals are perfect! They are available in two sizes (small, as shown above, and the full page size as well), so you can easily fit them into your decor! Get the Free Printables Today... โ Classic Homemade LasagnaLike many other millennials, I grew up on Stouffer's Family Size lasagna, a side salad, and a hunk of French bread. But since finding out we have modern gluten and dairy allergies, I hadn't enjoyed lasagna in over 15 years! I like to make my own einkorn lasagna noodles, but you don't have to! Either way, this dish is packed with seasoned meat, a creamy ricotta layer, and rich tomato sauce. โ Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter CupsWe skip the store-bought candy (especially at this time of year) and opt for the homemade version instead! You can use Lily's dark chocolate and your choice of powdered or liquid sweetener to make this low-carb-friendly as well! You can customize this recipe with dark or milk chocolate, peanut butter, almond butter, or even sun butter! โ Homemade MarshmallowsSoft, fluffy, and made with real grass-fed (and kosher) gelatin! We keep a batch of these on hand (in the freezer) during the entire fall so that we can have s'mores or hot chocolate whenever we want! I have two different versions that are both delicious! Either way, these are a must-have during the cold weather seasons! โ

Easy Vegetable Soup
If you have canned vegetables on the shelf, this soup takes less than 5 minutes to pull together. But even if you are making this with fresh vegetables, it still only takes about 30 minutes! Perfect for feeding a crowd or enjoying over several days. Serve with a side of homemade bread for the perfect dinner on a cold night!
