Fall is best spent curled up with cozy, comforting meals (and a Halloween movie) that feel like a hug in a bowl. If you're looking for festive sweet treats, consider these pumpkin black and white cookies or mini mason jar apple pies. But for nights when you're craving true nourishment—sometimes on the lighter side—these 42 healthy fall recipes will do the trick.
The ideas are flavorful, simple and packed with seasonal produce and warming spices (like Instant Pot spicy Thai butternut squash soup and white turkey chili with avocado)…but most importantly, they won't make you want to hibernate until next spring. Plus, each serving comes in at less than 500 calories. Now, who wants a Buffalo chicken-stuffed sweet potato?
