7 Healthy Fall Food Ideas

Healthy Fall Food Ideas

Southwest Florida is a great place to reside. However, it makes it challenging to enjoy your traditional fall festivities like pumpkin picking, hayrides, and Pumpkin Spice Lattes on a 90-degree day. Don’t get me wrong, I love the consistently warm weather. It makes it so much easier to get dressed in the morning. The beautiful beaches, the lack of snow, and abundance of golf courses also make it desirable! But, when all you want to do is don your cute scarves, you can whip up one of these fall treats to make it feel like the air it nipping at your nose. So crank down the air conditioner and fill your kitchen with the soul warming smells of cinnamon, pumpkin, and brown sugar with these healthy fall food ideas.
Then don’t forget to call Chad before your relatives come a knocking. Those home repairs can sneak up on you!
Hemp and maple pecan oatmeal – Very easy to make and its warming, nourishing, filling, sweet, and wonderfully balanced! Enjoy with 2 eggs (any style) for added protein and all day energy.
