Exploring All Things Fall Produce
Fall produce is colorful, poppy, and filled with flavor. Below are some of our top ingredient choices for your fall menu items.
Pumpkin
You can’t go wrong with pumpkin-based dishes! Try our fresh pumpkin for your pumpkin pies, purees, and pasta courses.
Squash
Squash is chock full of vital vitamins and minerals. Try roasted squash, scrambles, or squash-based lasagna. The last option is also a great choice for vegetarian customers.
Kumquats
Less is more! Sprinkle some kumquats onto stews or try them in a fresh salad. The tart flavor is wonderful when paired with savory or spiced ingredients.
Wondering which recipes you should try for the cold weather? We have a few ideas below to help you get started.
Thick, Hearty Stews
When people are cold and tired, there’s nothing like a hearty stew to warm them up. Try crockpot-style dishes with beef or chicken for your menu to cheer up your customers.
Hot Pies
Pie is amazingly popular during the holidays. We recommend apple pie, pumpkin pie, or pecan pie. You can also turn these into fritters or samplers for customers in a hurry.
