Recipes for a cold day

Fall is well underway, and students have caught up with old friends, met new love interests and realized that maybe they should have dropped one of their classes before the quarter even began. But what better way to get people together and escape from the stress of the quarter system than a home-cooked seasonal meal? These recipes will make sure that you incorporate savory fall ingredients into your cooking. You’ll even impress the old friend who knew you when all you could cook was a bowl of ramen. With these recipes, you’ll be infusing each dish with the rich flavor of pumpkin.

Some recommendations and notes of caution: The cranberry sauce is best served warm and also goes great with the cookies. If the soup is too rich for you, just add more bouillon. Make sure you mix the French toast batter before each dip to ensure that no ingredient sinks to the bottom and escapes the bread. The toast is an obvious breakfast treat but also makes for a sweet dessert. Add blueberries, nuts or orange zest to the cranberry sauce to add an extra punch. If you leave the cookie dough out for a long time after combining the ingredients, it will rise a little and create cookies that are a little more like scones. So get cooking; it’ll create a seemingly reasonable excuse to take a study break and invite some friends over.
