246. Cozy Fall Recipes to Make This Week (Comfort Food That’s Also Nourishing)

What if the cozy fall meals you’re craving are exactly what your body needs? The first crisp breeze hits, the cinnamon apples start calling your name, and before you’ve even picked a recipe, the guilt shows up. Maybe you tell yourself to “be careful,” or plan to skip lunch to make room for a bigger dinner. Easy fall recipes shouldn’t come with a side of food guilt, and comfort food isn’t something to earn, make up for, or apologize for. In today’s episode, Brittany shares three easy fall recipes she makes on repeat: a creamy roasted butternut squash soup, maple glazed Brussels sprouts with pecans, and baked apples with cinnamon and oats. She breaks down what makes each one cozy, delicious, and nourishing, including how to round out a meal so it actually satisfies. She also gets honest about why the “good food versus bad food” list keeps showing up at your table, and what to do about it.
