Often times, as the summer begins to wind down, we forget about eating salads and start focusing on warm, comfort foods. Unfortunately, standard comfort foods tend to be pretty low or completely void of vegetables.

Vegetables provide our bodies with a large variety of nutrients that help to support our immune system and mood, among many other things. If we fail to add them to our daily diet, the lack of nourishment can make it harder to stay healthy and happy as the “flu bug” passes around the office and as the days get shorter.

Luckily, there are hundreds of warm, comfort foods recipes available at our finger tips that are full of veggies. And, if you eat what’s in season now, it can help support your body as the weather begins to change.

Here are 6 recipes you’ll want to add to your line-up of fall favorites:

Creamy Spinach Sweet Potato Noodles – Pinch of Yum

Paleo Shepherds Pie – Primal Palate

Sausage N’ Cabbage “Noodles” – Everyday Paleo

Four Layer Beef And Bacon Casserole – The Paleo Kitchen

Have fun enjoying these yummy recipes. They make great use of veggies that are bountiful this time of year and are a bit tastier than the veggies your parents used to make you stay at the dinner table for.
