Holy cow — it’s October!
We’ve been cooking through The Pretty Dish together for eight months now, and it’s been amazing. If you haven’t joined our community yet, grab your copy of The Pretty Dish and jump in. The only requirement is to have the book so you can cook along with us.
September was full of fantastic dishes — you all killed it. In the secret Facebook group, some members have made 75 recipes already. I’m so excited that fall is here and I can share some of my favorite seasonal picks.
October Book Club Recipes
Sweet and Spicy Pretzels with Maple Beer Mustard
Butternut Sage Compound Butter
Butternut Squash Queso!
Toasted Garlic Tomato Bisque
French Onion Grilled Cheese with Thyme Butter
Jalapeno Butternut Squash Tacos
Autumn Monster Cookies
These recipes are perfectly seasonal and full of comforting flavors. Yes, there’s a bit of a butternut theme this month — I’m obsessed and wanted to get my squash fix now. If you prefer, you can always swap in another ingredient in place of squash.
Remember, these selections are a guide for our month of cooking. Make whatever you like. Members of the Facebook group share dozens of recipes, tips, and modifications — dairy-free, gluten-free, Weight Watchers-friendly, and more. It’s supportive, fun, and inspiring.
