Every fall, I search my own blog for our favorite harvest recipes. This year I decided to compile a list so you can enjoy them as well. These are all favorites that we have used over and over, from salsa and sauerkraut to pumpkin slice, apple salad, soups, and Thanksgiving turkey. I have included a few helpful fall kitchen tips, a favorite fall memory, and a bit of encouragement, too.
I was hoping to make all these recipes printable and to spruce up the pictures, but there is no time for that (we are still working on apples and tomatoes as well as the carrots, turnips, and kale that are still in the garden). However, the recipes themselves are great, and that is what counts, and you can always print them out by copying and pasting into Word.

And, if you need encouragement to just keep on picking the next vegetable, preserving the next batch of fruit, cooking the next meal, and doing the next thing…because all this enormous amount of effort seems so trivial in the grand scheme of things, please do read my post about Harvest, Health, and Thanksgiving.
May God bless us all as we use his gifts of health and harvest to his glory!
