It's Fall Ya'll

Fall, also known as autumn, is a season known for its unique foods and flavors. If you're looking for high-protein foods to enjoy during the fall season, here are some facts and suggestions:

1. Turkey: Fall is often associated with Thanksgiving, and turkey is a lean source of high-quality protein. It's a staple of many Thanksgiving meals.
2. Pumpkin Seeds: Pumpkin seeds, also known as pepitas, are a great source of protein. They're often harvested in the fall when pumpkins are in season. They can be roasted and enjoyed as a snack or added to various dishes.
3. Legumes: Fall is a good time to enjoy various legumes like beans, lentils, and chickpeas. These are excellent sources of plant-based protein and can be used in soups, stews, and salads.
4. Nuts: Fall is when nuts like almonds, walnuts, and pecans are in season. These are not only high in protein but also provide healthy fats and other nutrients. Enjoy them as snacks or add them to your baked goods and salads.
5. Squash: Fall brings a variety of squash, such as butternut, acorn, and spaghetti squash. These vegetables are relatively high in protein compared to other veggies and can be used in numerous recipes.
6. Brussels Sprouts: Brussels sprouts are a cruciferous vegetable that's in season during the fall. They contain a moderate amount of protein and are a great addition to side dishes and salads.
7. Quinoa: While not a fall-specific food, quinoa is a high-protein grain that can be used in a wide range of dishes. It pairs well with fall vegetables and flavors.
8. Apples and Peanut Butter: Apples are a fall favorite, and pairing them with peanut butter can create a protein-rich snack. Peanut butter is a good source of plant-based protein.
9. Wild Game: Fall is hunting season for many types of wild game, such as venison and duck. These meats are generally lean and protein-packed.
10. Eggs: Eggs are available year-round but can be a great source of protein during the fall. Use them in various recipes or enjoy them as a breakfast option.
