Fall means the holiday season is coming, and that also means cold weather, which some of you love and some don’t. Even if you hate the cold weather, you can take advantage of it at your restaurant by rotating new dishes through your menu to celebrate the changing of the seasons. Fall festivities should be celebrated with fall dishes! Here are some fall dish ideas for your menu:
Mushroom Stroganoff
Fall brings mushrooms, and other plants, right to our plates, and we want you to take advantage of that! You can easily substitute mushrooms for other ingredients in dishes that already exist on your menu, or you can bring a new dish to your menu. Here’s a great recipe for mushroom stroganoff: https://veganhuggs.com/vegan-mushroom-stroganoff/#wprm-recipe-container-8617!
Sweet Potato Gnocchi
Italian restaurants pay attention! Sweet potato gnocchi works great for fall because it incorporates the classic sweet fall potato. If you already have gnocchi on the menu, you can easily switch your regular gnocchi over to sweet potato gnocchi, or at least give customers the option!
