π Turkey Apple Pecan Kale Salad (Perfect for Fall!)
|
If you love the flavors of fall but donβt want anything too heavy, this Turkey Apple Pecan Kale Salad is the perfect recipe for you! Crisp kale, chopped apples, cinnamon pecans, and sliced turkey come together in a quick honey mustard dressing for a salad that is anything but boring. The whole thing comes together in about 15 minutes and disappears even faster! My 11-year-old son has been actively requesting this salad since I first made it about 2 months ago (I've already made it for him 8 times!). Even my husband heartily enjoys this meal and loves the way the house smells while I'm cooking the cinnamon pecans. Give it a try today! π

Canning Sweet Potatoes Between now and the Thanksgiving holiday (at least in the USA), you should be able to snag sweet potatoes at a great discount! Grab them in bulk and can them for later. Or, if you're like us, and you grow your own sweet potatoes, but don't have a root cellar, then canning is a great alternative! This recipe is canned in a very light syrup, though you can also process sweet potatoes in water. Just note that they will lose a lot of flavor if a bit of sweetness isn't added...
