One of my favorite things about fall is eating squash — they are easy to prepare, flavorful, nutritious and comforting. I’m now a big fan of delicata squash and I especially love the fact that you can eat the beautiful yellow skin that is striped in green.

Pierogi (also commonly spelled perogi) are Eastern European dumplings that are filled and then either boiled, baked or fried. As with other dumplings found around the world pierogi vary with each chef and can be stuffed with sweet or savory fillings. This Polish version of pierogi comes from my husband’s Grandmother who was of Polish descent. They are filled with a typical Polish filling of boiled potatoes, cottage cheese and onion.

Love Apples, otherwise known as tomatoes, were once believed to have aphrodisiac powers and were called pommes d’amour in French (literally, apples of love). It is a fitting name for a rich and creamy Valentine’s Day side dish.
