Fall is officially here (even if we're still hanging out in the 90's in California...) While we're adjusting to our first fall living in warm weather, it always makes me think of bundling up in the windy streets of New York City – you can't beat an east coast fall. Here are some fall favorites and quick dinners to inspire you this week.

Wednesday: SHEET PAN GREEK CHICKEN WITH PEPPERS AND POTATOES
Wednesday is hard enough as is, why not make it easier with a sheet pan recipe? It is just so satisfying after all the eating is finished to bundle up that foil or parchment and be done with cleanup!

Thursday: FRENCH ONION SOUP
Soothing and warm, this soup is my ideal rainy night craving. We don't get a lot of rain in our new town so whenever I feel homesick for New York City I make a batch of this for my family with crunch croutons on top.

Friday: SAUSAGE + SPINACH PIZZA
Pizza night happens in our house every Friday, and if I'm honest we usually get delivery or to-go. Sometimes it's nice to get cozy, throw on a movie, and make it at home. These are some ingredients I love to have on hand so check it out!

Dessert: HOMEMADE ROOT BEER
Making homemade root beer on Halloween has been a tradition in my family for as long as I can remember! My mom did it for us as kids and I've loved being able to carry on the tradition.

Breakfast: CINNAMON ROLLS
Soft gooey center with bursts of cinnnamony flavor and a slightly crispy exterior with a tangy not-too-sweet glaze??? Yes, PLEASE! When it comes to these rolls, the only thing better than the taste is the smell!
