Fall in Love with Fall Salads
Fall is for fall salads. Well at least in my mind. September to November are chaotic months filled with endless meetings, obligations, holidays and pure untamed chaos as we ease into the holiday season. For sanity purposes and efforts to avoid slaving over the stove after long hard days, fall salads are my go-to recipes.
Though tomatoes and delicate green season are long gone, fall provides new opportunities to enjoy chicories, cabbage, broccoli, root vegetables, apples, pears, and citrus fruits during their prime. Here is a round up of cooking videos and links to some of my favorite fall salads.
