One of my favorite things about Autumn is the return of hearty, warm foods to our meal plans. Could I make these meals in the summer? Of course. Do I? No. Summer calls for cooler, quicker meals. As soon as the cooler weather returns, I love turning on the oven and making delicious comfort foods. Today I'm making Chickpea Pot Pie and a No-bake pumpkin mousse for dessert.

Today I'm taking a zucchini recipe I used in my summer farmer market meal post, and giving it a little facelift to use it for my favorite squash, butternut!
