Autumnal weather has arrived! What’s a punky to do when they aren’t buying into the pumpkin spice frenzy? I’ve raided our General Kitchen Babble board, Pinterest, and my own supply of autumn recipes to bring you the all the good stuff. Here are 50 ways to bring autumn goodness to the table without pumpkin. Let pears, apples, beets, Brussel sprouts, eggplant, and other squashes take the spotlight.
