3 Excellent Fall Foods That Will Warm You In Michigan

Fall is living well in Michigan this time of year. The temperatures have dropped and we have a lot less daylight. We do a lot of outdoor work in the fall around our homes. What are some awesome meals you can serve that can warm you up quickly on a cold fall day?

I've been working in the yard since March, literally. I am excited about the work that continues in our yard into the fall months. I have been spending a lot of time outdoors, well after dark. Now that it's cooler outside, a nice warm meal is always a good trade off for the labor I performed. Here's three meals that I gravitate towards on a cold fall day.

Shepards Pie

We haven't made this at home in a couple of years but plan on doing so soon. It's like chicken pot pie but with mashed potatoes on top instead of crust and the protein is lamb or beef. Get some great recipes so you can make your own amazing Shepards Pie. Eating this hits the spot after a long cold day outside in the fall.

Chili

There are so many different ways to prepare chili. For me, I like it meaty. We add brisket, beef and a few beans. The meatier the better. After you get done cleaning the gutters on a crisp autumn day, chili will warm ya up. Chili is better the second day. Enjoy the leftovers. Try a new recipe for chili if you dare.

Pot Pie

How can you go wrong with pot pie. This is loaded with carbs and deliciousness. It's a pie loaded with gravy, chicken, vegetables and potatoes. This will treat your belly warm after a long cold day outside. Treat yourself to a classic chicken pot pie.
