Soup

A bowl of soup is a satisfying and warm fall meal idea. Soups are quite simple to make since you can pretty much throw in whatever you have. Whether you make your own broth or use a store-bought version, this is the perfect base. Feel free to add in canned tomatoes, as well as beans and noodles for a delicious and healthy minestrone soup. Let the soup simmer in your Lagostina stock pot from Hudson’s Bay for about an hour and then serve topped with parmesan cheese and a nice crusty loaf of bread. Not only will you find coupons for Hudson’s Bay on Rakuten.ca, but this pot is also on sale, so grab it before it is gone!

Apple Pie

The smell of apple pie baking in the oven is what fall is all about. That nostalgic apple cinnamon smell wafting through the house means that fall is here. The buttery, flaky crust filled with warm, gooey apples is an impressive dessert for a dinner party, or just a night at home. Take advantage of the in-season Canadian produce that is currently available. Head to a local farm for some apple picking, and then use the fruits of your labour to make an apple pie.
