For the seventh straight year, October is Dining Month on OnMilwaukee.com, presented by the restaurants of Potawatomi. All month, we're stuffed with restaurant reviews, delectable features, chef profiles and unique articles on everything food, as well as the winners of our "Best of Dining 2013."
Dust off the crock pot and the casserole dish, it’s fall cooking time. In honor of soups, stews and comfort foods of all kinds, OnMilwaukee.com asked the Social Circle for their favorite fall recipes.
Feel free to contribute your favorite autumn eats via the Talkback feature.
