Ok I know it is not fall yet but maybe if I start posting cold weather recipes the temperatures might start cooling down…maybe? Well, we all know that won’t actually happen even though Fall technically starts tomorrow. This is a great recipe for when it actually does start to cool off and want something to warm you from the inside out. Enjoy!
