With fall in full swing in Northern Virginia, I have been searching for all my fall recipes to make. It’s the season of comfort food (did you catch my lighter version of fall comfort food post here?) but that doesn’t mean comfort food has to be unhealthy. I picked up some of my favorite fall vegetables at Trader Joe’s the other week to create the most delicious roasted fall vegetable pasta. This pasta truly captures all the flavors of the season and I couldn’t be more excited for it!

Easy Homemade Ravioli
Happy Tuesday, friends! I hope you enjoyed your weekend/long weekend. I just wanted to hop on to share this quick and easy homemade ravioli recipe I have made a few times this winter. Pasta is one of my favorite foods. I probably could eat it every night if it were acceptable, but homemade pasta has always been on my cooking to do list. While this isn’t exactly homemade pasta, it does come pretty close. And it’s a quick and yummy weekend dish.
Cauliflower Fettuccine Alfredo
Healthy and quick weeknight dinners are always on my mind, but especially at the start of fall. As I mentioned with last week’s Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas, I think it’s because I’m preparing for dinner without a grill in the colder months which forces me to come up with quick dinners indoors. This Cauliflower Fettuccine Alfredo is a spin on the traditional Fettuccine Alfredo but with a fraction of the calories. A relatively guilt-free dinner, you will find yourself reaching for seconds without feeling bad about it!

Ragu Traditions: Chicken Parmesan Meatballs
Every family has traditions when it comes to food. For me, it was very rare that we did not sit down as a family for dinner each night growing up. Now, with busy lifestyles, family dinner time seems to be a thing of the past. And although we do not have kids yet, my husband and I make it a point to sit together nearly every night for dinner, no matter what our schedules entail. Full disclosure: I am typically not making a “from scratch” meal each night. With both of our hectic calendars, I am constantly trying to come up with quick recipes and shortcuts to cut down on my time in the kitchen.
