Leaves are falling, stomachs are rumbling, and cranberries are deliciously in season.

Start enjoying ’em by ordering next week’s Quickest Crispy Chicken with Cranberry Arugula Salad and Garlic Toasts and keep the flavor coming all autumn long.

It wouldn’t be fall without the savory goodness of ingredients like butternut squash, sage, and warm cinnamon in the air. We adore all the best flavors of the season, but today, we’re specifically celebrating CRANBERRIES. The magenta bursts of flavor in everything from salads and stuffings to seasonings and snack-time.

Why? Because they’re not just full of good stuff for your body (hello, vitamin C and antioxidants). They’re also a super versatile, easy-to-cook ingredient.

And since we’re smack in the middle of their peak deliciousness season, you’ll find cranberries all over our chef-curated menu. First up is next week’s 20-Minute Meal.
