Autumn usually provides a bounty of fresh produce, including pumpkins, squashes and zucchini. It wasn't until about a decade ago that I learned to appreciate squash in almost every form, although my favorite preparation method is to bake squash with butter and pepper.
Zucchini Casserole is another favorite, along with Apple-Stuffed Acorn Squash, Baked Pine Nuts, Pumpkin Cookies, Pumpkin Pancakes, Pumpkin Pie Pudding and Pumpkin Seeds. The possibilities are literally endless.
Enjoy the season!

Food Fare's Community Garden Cookbook is the newest addition to our growing collection of cookbooks, and is now available in Kindle and Nook editions.
To celebrate the successes and altruistic efforts of community gardens across the globe, Food Fare's Community Garden Cookbook offers more than 140 recipes for garden-fresh ingredients, including appetizers and snacks, beverages, breads, breakfast dishes, condiments and sauces, desserts, herbs and spices, main meals, soups and stews, and side dishes.
Community gardens promote and provide healthier sustenance for those living on limited incomes and a better eating lifestyle for people in general. They also bring awareness to environmental and sustainability issues, as well as offering educational and recreational opportunities for the disabled and otherwise disenfranchised. The USDA claims nearly 15% of the world's food is now grown in urban areas, with many gardens being nurtured in backyards, parks, vacant lots, roof-tops and balconies.
New recipes added with Food Fare's autumn update include: *FOOD FARE @ KOBO BOOKS All Food Fare e-book titles are now available at Kobo Books. The books are offered in e-reader, Kobo-Vox, Smartphone and tablet editions. Click here to read more.
*CULINARY RANKINGS @ AMAZON According to Amazon, Medieval Cuisine has consistently ranked the best seller in Food Fare's Culinary Collection for more than a year. I often receive messages from people who have read the various books in the collection, or plan to use them for educational purposes. In particular, Medieval Cuisine has been used by professors, students (several from Duke University), and event organizers as reference material. The book has also been quoted verbatim by many medieval-themed web sites. It's very flattering to say the least, and validates the hours, days and weeks I spent researching and writing Medieval Cuisine ten years ago.
We're planning a special Christmas issue of Food Notes in December, so keep your eyes peeled.
