It’s the season of so many wonderful things. Leaves starting to turn into warm colors. Driving home from work as golden hour begins. Grilling outside in the crisp fall air with a glass of red wine. Wool socks and sweatpants. Even football season has me feeling sentimental about fall this year.

I hope you have been able to embrace the season as well, whether you are a football fan or not. A little cooking inspiration never hurts either right?

Now that summer salads are officially off the table, this Romaine Salad with Crispy Smoked Salmon, Egg & Lemon-Caper Dressing will make the perfect replacement. The smoked salmon brings a ton of flavor and the radishes give a nice little finishing kick.

This Fresh Creamed Corn Fettuccine with Lettuce, Cucumber & Tomato Salad is another new favorite of mine. I can never have enough pasta recipes in my repertoire and this one has given me a whole new appreciation for corn season.

And lastly, this Italian Lamb Chops with Eggplant-Zucchini “Caponata” & Pine Nuts makes me feel like my Italian nonna cooked me Sunday night dinner. I don’t really have an Italian nonna but if I did, I imagine she might cook me something like this. Bellissimo!
