Look at some of our fall menu ideas featuring these ingredients to inspire your next catering event.
1. Maple Butternut Squash & Goat Cheese Flat Bread
Indulge your guests with warm and comforting, butternut squash. Roasting the squash brings out its natural sweetness, while the creamy, tangy goat cheese adds sophisticated depth to the dish. This flatbread can be served as a starter for a cocktail-style event or as a first course for a sit-down dinner.
2. Roasted Brussels & Bacon Lolli Skewers
For those who love classic, hearty fall dishes, maple-roasted Brussels sprouts with bacon is a crowd-pleaser. The sweetness of the maple syrup perfectly balances the smoky, salty flavor of the bacon, while roasting caramelizes the Brussels sprouts, bringing out their natural sweetness. Serve this as a side dish at any fall or winter gathering, and watch it quickly become a guest favorite.
3. Cranberry Glazed Chicken Skewers
Cranberries shine in both sweet and savory dishes, and when used as a glaze for chicken, they add a tart yet sweet contrast. This dish is ideal for those looking to serve an elegant appetizer at their event. Pair the chicken with sides like roasted root vegetables or creamy mashed potatoes to round out the meal. The cranberry glaze adds a festive and seasonal touch, perfect for autumn and winter celebrations.
4. Cornbread Stuffing Bites
Cornbread stuffing isn’t just for the side dish table. A unique presentation involves transforming the beloved dish into a savory cornbread stuffing bite.
