Fall makes you wanna cook (insert food here)…

Fall makes me wanna cook soup. Yup, that’s the food I’d fill the blank with.

I have to admit it and without shame that I am a cold weather person. I relish in wearing sweaters, lighting fires, and cooking warm hearty food.

I love soup. It is one of the most perfect meals. Quick. Easy. And nourishes both the stomach and the soul. Nothing soothes better than a steaming hot bowl of soup. Soup forces you slow down and just enjoy the moment. Like having a cup of tea.

The largest section in my recipe binder is for soups (then comes desserts close behind it.) I’ve got many favorite soups. In fact, too many to mention: spicy sausage with ravioli (pictured above), potato leek, cheddar cauliflower, or spicy black bean. During the cold weather months, I try to keep ingredients handy such as broth, sausages, pastas, and beans.

So when the weather turns cool, what is your favorite food to cook?
