fall menus

I finally have posted my fall menus on the sidebar over there...
I still need some side dishes. I'm burned out on our old standby quickie side dishes and I'd love to come up with some more seasonal ones. Any favorites? Also, always looking for some more seasonal baked goodies... :)

LOL about Smashing Pumpkin soup! What's that like? I made a pumpkin soup with pear and onion... it was good, but Caroline didn't like it. She does like a savory butternut squash soup that I make, oddly enough.

I like asperagus as as a side, and so do dh and Cecilia. Cauliflower with melted cheddar is good, and we do homemade mac and cheese a lot using a Rachel Ray recipe that's pretty easy (for homemade mac and cheese, that is).

Yes on the Corn Casserole, Lori!

Erin, I'll send you the pumpkin soup recipe if it comes out. I made it last year and we all liked it. When I made it last week, it came out terrible, but I used this homemade stock from my freezer that tasted like it was made from a smoked turkey we had a while back, lol....the soup tasted like smoke, and only smoke! I'm going to make it again on Friday with plain broth and see how it goes.
