Greetings!
Fall is such a fun time for cooking! Squashes, pumpkins, sweet potatoes, yams, apples and cranberries are abundant and hoping to make their way to your plate. Eating with the seasons can be extremely health-promoting, as it creates balance and stability within the body, and provides for natural detoxification and rejuvenation. Look around at what is coming out of the ground right now - that is exactly what nature has intended for us, and what our bodies need to thrive and repair. To see a list of the northeast region's fall foods, click here. To learn more about cooking fall foods, join us for our holiday cooking class in November, or create your own class with a group of friends.
Scroll below for a delicious, seasonal sweet pumpkin pesto recipe, information on our holiday cooking class, our "Yoga for Foodies" workshop, and to register for the next free teleclass: "Breaking the Sugar Cycle."
We have also begun to take holiday orders for raw macaroons and cookies. Click here to place an order.
Hoping to see you at a Feeding Your Life event soon!
Wishing you an abundant autumn,
Jennifer
