Fall Dinner Recipes Meal Plan featuring Salt & Lavender
Pomegranate Brussels Sprouts Salad from Salt & Lavender
Prep Time: 20 minutes Total Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients: brussels sprouts, pomegranate, tahini, honey, red wine vinegar, olive oil, Dijon, salt & pepper.
Have you tried a salad made with brussels sprouts before? I know it sounds kind of gross and I was skeptical myself but if you cut the little guys thinly enough (I use my mandolin) it turns into such a light and fresh salad. I left out tahini when I made this.
Acorn Squash and Carrot Soup from Salt & Lavender
Prep Time: 25 minutes Cook Time: 50 minutes Total Time: 1 hour 15 minutes
Ingredients: acorn squash, carrots, onion, celery, butter, olive, vegetable broth, garlic powder, cream (optional).
Fall is all about soup in my opinion and I love the unique flavor combo of squash and carrots.
Parmesan Stuffed Acorn Squash from Salt & Lavender
Prep Time: 10 minutes Cook Time: 60 minutes Total Time: 1 hour 10 minutes
Ingredients: acorn squash, Italian pork sausages, salt & pepper, butter, onion, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, parmesan.
Can you tell I’m into acorn squash lately?! These were delicious, pretty simple to make and my kids loved them. I used chicken sausage from Trader Joe’s and instead of Worcestershire sauce I used coconut aminos.
Cauliflower and Leek Soup from Salt & Lavender
Prep Time: 10 minutes Cook Time: 30 minutes Total Time: 40 minutes
Ingredients: butter, olive oil, leeks, cauliflower, broth, cumin, thyme. Optional Garnishes: Bacon, parsley, chives.
Another great Fall soup recipe. I always add a little cream to this type of soup if I have any on hand and love the bacon garnish and herb garnish.
Roasted Butternut Squash Spinach Salad with Goats Cheese from Salt & Lavender
Prep Time: 10 minutes Cook Time: 30 minutes Total Time: 40 minutes
Ingredients: butternut squash, olive oil, salt & pepper, lemon juice, honey, dijon, garlic, cumin, olive oil, spinach, dried cranberries, pumpkin seeds, goat’s cheese, basil.
What a beautiful Fall salad! I love the combo of roasted squash, goat’s cheese and cranberries. If basil is unavailable where you live I think it will still be good without it!

So glad you enjoyed these recipes, Emily! Thank you for sharing them with your readers. 🙂
Thanks, Natasha! I have loved each recipe I’ve tried from you site and look forward to trying more in the future!
Both of those salads look amazing!
These all look so pretty and delicious but I think my favorite is that first salad with the Pomegranate seeds!
Thanks, Jessy! Any recipe with pomegranate seeds is pretty much automatically a winner in my book… they are nature’s candy!
Such an amazing autumn meal plan! All of these sound fantastic. Especially the stuffed acorn squash. So colorful.
Thanks, Tara! The stuffed squash is so delicious, even my kids loved it!
These all look delicious! I’m eating only fruits and veggies for a couple days for my post holiday food hangover! I’m definitely going to be trying that Brussels sprouts salad….yum!!!
Thanks, Lisa! I totally feel you on the post holiday food hang over!!
That brussels sprouts and pomegranate salad looks amazing! We have sausage-stuffed acorn squash in our regular dinner rotation during the fall – so, so good. These recipes all look right up my alley!
Thanks, Julie!
All of these recipes look so tasty. I’m not a fan of brussel sprouts, but I’m seeing so many recipes with them, I’ll have to try it again. My husband is allergic to basil, so we use either cilantro or mint. I don’t know if they will work in your recipe, though. The dishes are beautiful!
I didn’t used to like brussels sprouts but once I played around with different ways of cooking with them (thinly sliced, roasting, etc) I started enjoying them more and now they are a favorite! I hope you give them another try!
