This is an exciting week in meal plans!
@Katie.Melody has graced us with a copycat version of a salad from the infamous Los Angeles-based grocery store, Erewhon, that has a $20 price tag! Do yourself a favor and spend $10 on ingredients to make this salad all week, you won't regret it!

Tuesday brings some yummy, autumnal inspiration to your week with roasted squash and braised fennel. Wednesday and Thursday are super easy weeknight meals- you can prep the lentil balls ahead of time, throw them in a warm pita and call it a day!

For this weekend, I've added two seasonal recipes, one is an easy apple dessert and the other is maple granola which is great to have throughout the week (hello, yogurt parfaits!)


If you make any of these recipes, snap a photo and tag us #feedfeed @thefeedfeed on Instagram or TikTok for a chance to be featured. Happy cooking!
 
 
 
THE RECIPES
MONDAY  Erewhon-Inspired Kale White Bean Salad
by @Katie.melody

Erewhon Market is one of the greatest surprises about Los Angeles - it’s essentially a grocery store for the 1 percent. Popularized by Emma Chamberlain, this kale salad is crunchy, it’s nutritious, delicious, and just something you can eat a huge bowl of and feel amazing. This recipe is a deconstructed version of that salad and a much more affordable way to make it at home.
TUESDAY  Roasted Acorn Squash with Sausage Cranberries and Maple White Wine Mustard Sauce
by @Shelbyykhan

Looking for something to do with acorn squash? Look no further! This recipe has it all; ground sausage, tart cranberries. And to top off with a sweet and savory maple mustard sauce. Add this to your Thanksgiving menu this year!
Braised Fennel Butterbeans
by @Cheftomwalton

When fennel is roasted it takes on a sweet, savory, floral flavor similar to anise or licorice. This side dish is perfect for those who have a sophisticated palette. The addition of butterbeans makes this a hearty lunch or a great dinner side. Add your favorite protein to make it a full meal! 
WEDNESDAY Chicken and Veggies Rice Bowl
by @Allweeat-com

This chicken vegetable rice bowl with spices is made with cooked chicken, colorful veggies, paprika, and peppers, all on a bed of cooked rice and garnished with fresh chopped dill. It can make an extra light and perfect weeknight dinner that’s a treat for the whole family. Everyone can choose their favorite toppings and enjoy a complete meal.

THURSDAY Chickpea Lentil Balls
by @Micadeli_

Michala uses Harissa and Ras el Hanout spices in her falafel recipe. But you can easily experiment using other spices. Just make sure to taste the final dough and add more salt, sour or spicy ingredients if needed. Make or buy your favorite hummus and serve some tablespoons per bread.
WEEKEND BONUS Gluten Free Bourbon Baked Apple Crisp
by @Shelbyykhan

Looking for a pie alternative for this year's Thanksgiving dessert? Or maybe you want to do a fun and easy take on an apple pie. Try making these individual apple crisps. 
Maple Granola
by @Ellielikescooking

This simple granola recipe is ideal for you if you don't typically eat a big breakfast or are constantly on the run. It may be tailored to your preferences, and you can even use it to prepare overnight oats or yogurt parfaits. It's naturally sweetened with maple syrup, making it an excellent, nutritious breakfast alternative.
