It’s autumn and that could only mean one thing: the temperatures are falling and we’re getting ready for tasty foods to keep us toasty! Chef George Duran is sharing some tasty dishes to keep us toasty this Fall Season!
As a father of two young boys Chef Duran is all about the quality of foods they eat. And topping his kids' list of favorite foods: french fries and ketchup. So Chef Duran came up with some tastier options that puts his oven to good use like Polenta fries, zucchini fries, asparagus fries and even carrot fries! (Recipes below!) Chef Duran's kids devour them with ketchup. And in his home he doesn't allow anything with high fructose corn syrup. Now America’s number one mustard, French’s has a ketchup with no high fructose corn syrup and the proof is in the great taste and how much they all love to dip in it!

French’s Ketchup
America’s #1 mustard brand now offers a ketchup with no high fructose corn syrup. Non-GMO and designed for those who prioritize food quality without sacrificing taste.
One of the tricks Chef Duran uses to create delicious, fall foods at home is to keep a few cans of beans on hand. Beans are packed with flavor, protein and fiber and he likes using BUSH’s beans because of the incredible variety of chili beans they have that are slowly simmered in herbs and spices. How about some braised short rib chili using Bush’s black chili beans? Or kidney bean Bolognese chili? And this is his favorite, he's used Bush’s original baked beans to create this sweet and smokey queso fundido. He sautéed the beans with peppers, onions and garlic then added grated cheese and put it straight into the broiler. That’s all! Click here for recipes on all these delicious dishes!

BUSH’S Chili Beans
Beans slowly simmered in a unique blend of herbs and spices. Available in varieties like Black Bean and Kidney Bean to elevate any fall chili or stew.
Speaking of melted cheese, this one is called Jarlsberg, and it’s a Norwegian cheese that has a wonderful mild and nutty flavor. Chef Duran uses it in recipes like mac n' cheese because it has this ooey gooey meltability that everyone loves. Also, Chef Duran created this amazing pizza fondue with Jarlsberg using dried oregano and tomatoes and all you have to do is serve the toppings on the side and have the kids…ok, the adults, dip into it with warm bread or crackers. Click here for these recipes! It’s great for a snack on its own or melted on almost anything! Visit Jarlsberg.com to learn more. Don't forget to follow them on Facebook & Twitter!
