Yes, it's true, summer has come to an end. But don't freak out because it's actually kind of a good thing. Sure, it's sad to say goodbye to the grill outs, summer berries and all that ice cream. But fall means apple pie a la mode, big bowls of soup and so much pasta. Guys, fall totally wins when it comes to food -- and its victory can be measured in butter and cheese.
So pull out your big comfy sweaters and put on your forgiving pants -- you know, the ones with the elastic band -- because we've entered the season of feasting. Here are 25 recipes you should cook and eat to celebrate the beginning of the fall season. Think of them as training for Halloween candy and Thanksgiving dinner.
