Finally, temperatures are dropping just enough in SW Florida to take the “edge off” and the snow birds are slowly migrating south, further signs that fall has indeed arrived. However, in most areas of the country, the days are much cooler and the nights are generally quite brisk. With family schedules becoming busier and social calendars “ramping up,” MPM has created some new fun and healthy make-ahead dishes suited for chillier temperatures.
Recognizing your love for easy-to-assemble crockpot recipes, MPM has two new comforting and warming dishes for you to enjoy. Aromatic spices such as cinnamon, ginger and coriander, simmer along with beef, eggplant, carrots,onions and aprictots making Moroccan Beef Stew a truly delicious and satisfying meal. Butternut Squash ‘n Apple Bisque gets it’s creaminess from natural applesauce instead of the traditional cream. Prepare this bisque the night before or over the weekend to enjoy during the week.
Need to get dinner on the table FAST? Pick up some all-natural pre-cooked chicken along with your family’s favorite tortillas and toppings and watch how quickly Build Your Own Chicken Tostados will become a staple in your house! Looking for a healthy alternative to all of that oh-so-tempting Halloween candy? Well you can now indulge without guilt if you try MPM’s Pumpkin Pie “Mousse”, the newest addition to her dessert collection. Struggling with salad boredom lately? Colorful and crunchy Jicama, Carrot and Apple Slaw comes together in minutes and promises to have even the most stubborn veggie eaters asking for more.
