October Meal Plan
October brings cooler temps and comfort foods like casseroles and cooking with apples and pumpkin flavors. The October meal plan has all of that and more.
This October meal plan also includes some football food ideas for college game day or fans of the NFL on game nights. It is always nice to slip in some fun food on a weeknight.
