I'm hosting Thanksgiving this year. It will be the first time I cook dinner with all the fixings for a big crowd. *Gulp.* I've got the turkey under control. But the one food that's stressing me out? The stuffing!
Help!

My stomach is growling for these Pizza Bites (from For the Love of Cooking)—pillowy balls of pizza dough filled with cheese and pepperoni with a side of pizza sauce. Yum!

Happy One-Pot Wednesday!
We eat a lot of sweet potatoes in my house because they're high in Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and fiber. Plus, yams taste great because they're naturally sweet! We'll be trying this easy recipe for one-pot Garlic Pot Roast and Sweet Potatoes from Betty Crocker. Just combine ingredients in the crock pot and leave it to cook all day.

Mistibreuer1978 wrote a recent journal post about her Pumpkin Pie Chili. Some moms are saying "Ewwwww," but I think it sounds warm and delicious—and easy, too! It might be just the thing to serve to your little trick-or-treaters before they go out on Halloween night.

Kids love Mummy Dogs for Halloween, so why not Mummy Pizzas? These are made with pizza dough (I'd use English Muffins), sauce, string cheese, and black olives. Visit Kara's Kitchen Creations for the easy how-to.

Got a lot of apples lying around? One of my favorite things to make in the fall is homemade applesauce. It's so easy to do in the crock pot, and it makes your whole house smell like autumn deliciousness.
My favorite way to eat homemade applesauce? Warm and on top of vanilla ice cream! Yum!
