There are three major benefits to buying foods according to the season: better taste, more nutrients, and cheaper prices! I’m Hungry Girl Lisa Lillien, and I'm sharing seven of my favorite fall fruits and veggies.
購買應季食物有三個好處：味道更好，更有營養，價格更低。我是飢餓女孩麗莎莉蓮，現在要跟大家分享我秋季最愛的水果和蔬菜。
Apples
蘋果
I like my apples like I like the weather—nice and crisp! There's such a wide range to choose from: tart Granny Smith, sweet Pink Lady, mild Golden Delicious, sweet-tart Fuji (my favorite!), and more.
我喜歡蘋果就像喜歡這樣的天氣-舒服香脆！可選擇的蘋果品種範圍很廣：史密斯奶奶，粉紅女士，黃帥，富士（我的最愛！），等等。
Butternut Squash
冬南瓜
Remember when Joey from Friends made fun of Ross for calling it “squatternut bosh”? Call it whatever you want, the cool-weather squash is a must-have in my book. It has a slightly sweet flavor and it's seriously filling. It's also an excellent source of vitamin A and vitamin C, both of which are great to take in as we head into cold season. Butternut squash is fantastic steamed & mashed, cubed & cooked in a skillet, and even baked into French fries!
還記得老友記中喬伊取笑羅斯時稱之爲“squatternut波什”?不管叫它什麼,是冷天時我必不可少的食物。味道微甜，瓤多。富含維生素A和維生素C,這兩者都是我們在寒冷季節不可缺少的。冬南瓜是可以蒸碎，也可以放入鍋中成塊煮。甚至烤成薯條!最後一個的改變你的生活。
Brussels Sprouts
球芽甘藍
Brussels sprouts have made a comeback in the past few years; they’re not the boring boiled veggies grandma used to make!
球芽甘藍在過去幾年又開始被人們所喜愛。它們再也不是奶奶給我做的那種難吃的水煮蔬菜！
When cooked right, Brussels sprouts are tender and delicious with a slightly nutty taste. Get creative with sauces (balsamic vinegar, teriyaki marinade, marinara, etc.) and different mix-ins (like nuts, dried fruit, and crumbled bacon)! Not quite sure how to prepare them? First, slice off and discard the tough ends; then cut them in half.
當煮法合適，球芽甘藍會有淡淡的好吃的堅果味。創意調味料(香醋,紅燒的醃料,海員式沙司,等等)和不同的拌料(如堅果、乾果和培根)!不太清楚如何準備嗎?首先,把硬的部分切下來扔掉，然後把它們切成兩半。
Next, steam them in the microwave, toss them in a slow cooker with a little liquid, or bake them in the oven at a high temp. Easy peasy!
接下來,放進微波爐蒸,用少量湯在鍋裏慢燉,或用高溫在烤箱內烤。就是這麼簡單!
Spaghetti Squash
西葫蘆
Anyone who knows me knows that I love this squash! It’s a great swap for pasta: You can save loads of calories and carbs, but you'll still feel like you're eating a bowl of spaghetti.
任何認識我的人都知道我愛這種瓜!這個可以替代意大利麪:你可以節省大量的熱量和碳水化合物,但你仍然會覺得像是在吃意大利麪。
Beets
甜菜
They're super easy to make, and they'll crush a potato-chip craving for a fraction of the calories.
很容易製作，並且可以抵消一小片薯片的熱量。
Cauliflower
菜花
Cauliflower is the gift that keeps on giving. You can even use those mashies as a light topping for shepherd's pie. Try it!
菜花隨處可見。你甚至可以用它做土豆牛肉派。去試試吧！
Acorn Squash
小青南瓜
The sweet, nutty flavor of acorn squash makes it the perfect way to round out this list.
甜香味使得小青南瓜也在這7種可選的水果蔬菜之列。
