Next week will start with the hangover of the time change but luckily we have a holiday that will make the beginning of winter time more bearable. With Halloween and All Saints’ Day we have a good excuse to propose a different weekly menu to get out of the routine a little, without forgetting that the rest of the days we will have to continue eating and dining well at home.
We have so many Halloween recipe ideas that it would be impossible to prepare everything just for a party on Halloween in question, so we allow ourselves to stretch the atmosphere a little spooky advancing it in our menus so that Monday is less Monday, while continuing to follow our custom of dedicating the day to a complete vegetarian day. It’s not that difficult to give it a dark and fun touch to healthy and simple dishes.
We leave the sweet section to the star desserts of our November 1st traditions, without forgetting that there are more typical and regional All Saints’ Day recipes. to choose the ones you like the most. And those who have little ones at home will surely enjoy spending an afternoon preparing fun sweets with spookier shapes.
