When I was a young girl, this is the time of year

When I was a young girl, this is the time of year when I would join my mother and grandmother to trek through the Alpine forests and hunt for wild mushrooms 🍄 ⁠
⁠
There were some long days, but the thought of a belly-warming mushroom risotto at the end of the day was always worth the hunt.⁠
⁠
Mushroom risotto remains one of my favorite autumn dishes - both because it brings back so many memories, and because it’s the epitome of Italian comfort food. ⁠
⁠

🌰Chestnuts are a plentiful autumn snack in Piemonte, where the cultivation of chestnuts has truly shaped the landscape - and the food.⁠
⁠
Candied chestnuts are one of my favorite treats from my days living in Torino.⁠
⁠
I savored them, as they were only available from late October through February.⁠
⁠
I particularly love to have them covered in dark chocolate - a big treat in Torino. I may have to try my hand at making them myself this year!🌰⁠

Windy weather, cooler temps, and sunny days that quickly go chilly when the sun goes down... sounds like fall!⁠
⁠
Let’s take some advice from this old Italian saying and dress like an onion! 🧅⁠
⁠
Wear lots of cozy layers to stay warm, stylish, and keep your immune system strong. Layers allow you to strip down or pile on as the temperature shifts through the day.⁠

These gnocchi pillows make the perfect autumn meal with vibrant fall colors and earthy harvest root veggies. ⁠
⁠
In this recipe, we make 3 different types of gnocchi: regular potato, sweet potato, and chestnut. You could swap the sweet potato for pumpkin (just add a bit more flour to get the right consistency). ⁠

🍂 Change up your eating habits in Autumn - Here

🍂 Change up your eating habits in Autumn - Here’s how! 🍂 ⁠
⁠
1. Eat warmer foods. ⁠
This is a simple tip, but it can really make a difference in your digestion and energy through the colder months. Opt for soups and steamed veggies over raw salads.⁠
⁠
⁠
2. Enjoy the autumn bounty.⁠
We are now in harvest time, which means that there is an abundance of in-season fruits and veggies to enjoy! Load up on squash, a variety of greens, and plenty of juicy apples. ⁠
⁠
⁠
3. Eat earlier so you can go to bed earlier.⁠
While a late al fresco dinner works well in summer, autumn is a time to embrace a slower, more restful routine. So, plan to eat dinner a little earlier than you usually do so you can get to bed early, too. ⁠
⁠
This is the one I struggle with the most, as I’m usually busy working away and end up eating dinner late. BUT, I have noticed that when I stick to an earlier schedule, it makes a big difference to my health and weight loss efforts.⁠
