10 Foods That Are Meant For Fall

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at WVU chapter.

 

The leaves are falling, temperature is dropping and suddenly you suddenly have no desire to step outside. Netflix, warm baggy clothes and mountains of food sound heavenly. You decide to stay in because you just can’t do the cold right now. What do you do? Cook! With bathing suit season an entire year away, let loose and treat yourself to these Fall inspired foods and drinks.

Buffalo Chicken Dip

It technically isn’t fall if you haven’t stood around the crockpot at a tailgate and chowed on chips and buff chick dip until you were unnecessarily full.

Warm Homemade Cookies

Kudos to everyone who actually makes it to the baking step of making cookies. The dough always seems to disappear…

Soup

Chili, Chicken Noodle, French Onion, Potato, Broccoli Cheddar, Vegetable, I think you get the picture.

Hot Lattes

Of course the infamous Pumpkin Spice, but for those of us who are still Pumpkin Spice virgins, a vanilla will suffice

Pumpkin Roll

It’s a cinnamon role on pumpkin like steroids, nuff said.

Hot Chocolate

For those of you who do not have the taste buds for coffee, hot chocolate is all yours.

Brownies

Because chocolate.

Grilled Cheese

Whoever came up with the grilled cheese clearly had had a college budget and college level cooking skills in mind. Thank you!

Apple Cider

Whether you spike it or keep it virgin, nothing reminds you more of fall than the smell of warm apple cider on the stove.

Pie

It’s inevitable. You will not be able to turn a corner in the grocery store without ever pie imaginable staring at you begging you to purchase them. It would be rude not to right?

  I grew up in Charleston, West Virginia. Growing up here I knew there was a possibility of going to West Virginia University my entire life. Although I decided to start my college career at the University of Kentucky, those country roads led me back to WVU in the spring of my sophomore year. This was also the point when I decided to establish myself as a Broadcast Journalist student. Since this point I have strived to become the best possible journalist I can be. I am currently working as a weekend reporter for WDTV-Channel 5 in Clarksburg, West Virginia. Prior to receiving this position, I worked as an intern with WCHS-tv/FOX11, in the summer of 2014, where I learned critical editing, interviewing, writing, and speaking skills. I worked closely with anchors, reporters, editors, directors, producers, and even the web team. Aside from the television industry, I am the Campus Correspondent for the West Virginia University Chapter of the online entertainment magazine, Her Campus. Another position I currently hold is the Social Media Chair of WVU’s Radio Television Digital News Association Chapter. In the Fall of 2012, I became a sister of the Alpha Phi Fraternity, in which I held the position of ‘Big Sister Chairman.’ My other passions include horse back riding, scuba diving, being outdoors, and running. I am very adventurous and I try to stay well rounded. My goal in life is to live life to the fullest and be the best possible version of myself. My ultimate goal would be to earn a spot as a reporter/anchor for Fox News, New York. I plan to graduate in December of 2016 and look forward to my future.
