Our top 10 fall recipes to try:

1. One-Pot Deconstructed Chicken and Pesto Lasagna

When you think of fall, you think of comforting pasta dishes…like this lasagna! What we love about this recipe is that it’s made in a single pan. There’s nothing better than having just one item to clean up after making dinner. A comforting and easy weeknight dinner.

Luis S. — 5 stars : Favorite meal here!!

2. PVT Granola

A hearty breakfast! TVP is a soy-based product with a high protein content. This versatile ingredient can be easily incorporated into many recipes, as it takes on the flavor of whatever it is added to. This granola recipe is ideal for sprinkling over warm apples freshly picked from the orchard.

Mariève C. — 5 stars : Delicious and nutritious. I wasn’t sure how to use my textured vegetable protein (TVP) in my recipes. This one is quick and makes a good amount for several snacks!

3. Baked Brie with apple, thyme and garlic

A gourmet recipe that’s perfect for entertaining as well as pleasing guests! When the mercury starts falling, it’s time to serve this classic appetizer to your guests. We’ve decided to go with a mix of apple, garlic and thyme, but the combinations are endless. Let your imagination run wild!

4. Apple Crumble Muffins

Apple picking is a must in the Quebec fall. Seeing all this abundance, we then wonder how to avoid food waste and ensure that every apple is eaten! Here, we take inspiration from the classic apple crisp, but in muffin form! Perfect for breakfast or as a snack, they are nut-free and you can freeze them easily — ideal for meal prep for the week.

Joanne L. — 5 stars : Very good and not too sweet!

5. Butternut Squash Risotto

Fall is also squash season, and we love cooking with all varieties. Butternut squash is very popular with many recipe creators. So here’s a season recipe we love, a creamy vegetable and butternut squash risotto. Perfect if you’re hosting guests on a Saturday night!

6. Pre workout fall energy balls

A vegan recipe that prevents you from running out of energy just before your gym session or feeling a drop in energy in the middle of your workout. As a bonus, this recipe takes less than 15 minutes to prepare—we love it!

Mélanie S. — 5 stars : Very good, gives me the energy I need and is quick to make.
