Autumn Squash and Bean Salad

I recently discovered Violet Witchel (IG: @violetwitchel) and her now famous dense bean salads. I made this as a version of one of hers and it's delicious! Great for meal prep as this will last a few days and tastes great throughout that time.

Homemade Croutons

Don't throw away that load of bread that is going stale. Croutons are so easy to make and a great way to save that less-than-appetizing bread. This can also be made with 100% fresh bread too. I love combining these with my sort of Caesar salad dressing, shaved Parmesan and romaine lettuce for a Caesar inspired salad.

I jumped on board the "dense bean salad" meal prep trend and I am a fan. Being back in an office setting, meal prepping has made it easier to eat better meals at work. So far this has been a favorite.

Vegetarian Breakfast Casserole

I recently had my family over for brunch and decided to try this breakfast casserole recipe. It was a big hit and we didn't miss anything like bacon or sausage. I cut up and froze the leftover for some quick grab-n-go breakfasts later in the week.

This recipe has been passed along time and time again. My sister's friend shared it with her, she shared it with our mom, and my mom shared it with me. It's a quick and easy dinner option you can make in under an hour.

Lemon Berry Dutch Baby

Dutch babies make a really fun brunch menu item. There are so many variations you can create, but I always enjoy a lemon flavored one. Use whatever berries you have. Serve with lemon curd or maple syrup.

Sort of Caesar Salad Dressing

This is a salad dressing inspired by Caesar salad, but with pretty generous deviation from the traditional ingredients. It might sound a bit wacky, but serve this with fresh, crispy romaine or baby gems lettuce, homemade croutons and shaved Parmesan cheese for a new take on the classic salad.
