Get your shopping list ready! Now that it's officially fall--believe it or not--it's time to get your hands on some of the season's yummiest superfoods. Like...

Brussels sprouts: There are days I swear I could live on brussels sprouts alone--they can be so good (just check out this recipe!). Plus, they're high in vitamin K, folate, and iron.

Apples: Did you know that apple skin is filled with heart-healthy flavonoids? It's true! You can eat them raw, of course, or sprinkled over your salad...there are tons of ways to enjoy them. And chopping them up and putting them into a healthy apple pie totally counts--just keep those skins on.

Cauliflower: With compounds that may help prevent cancer, tons of vitamin C, and phytonutrients that may even lower cholesterol levels, it's kind of amazing how good cauliflower can be for you. You can even use it to make faux rice, mashed potatoes, or chips.

Pears: Juicy pears are incredible sources of vitamin C and copper (which you need in your diet to help your body form red blood cells, and keep your immune system and nerves healthy).

Sweet potatoes: They're loaded with vitamin A and iron, and they have anti-inflammatory benefits. Not to mention they taste delicious in everything from soups and hummus.
