It’s fall AKA the season of everything pumpkin, and a brand new season of The Mindy Project. It’s going to be an epic few months. I’m sure the goddess herself, Mindy, would approve of these Pumpkin Spice Donuts.They may sound a bit basic but who cares.

They only take 5 minutes, therefore ensuring you even more time to adore Mindy, Danny, and their adorable baby. Good luck trying to eat through all the laughter and tears this season.

Even though most of us don’t have piles of drug money, and the FBI on your ass like Pablo Escobar, you can still snack like royalty. You can buy these three simple ingredients to make South American Cheese Wontons basically anywhere.  Not to mention, the addition of squash or pumpkin would make for a dope upgrade.

These law students are staying up pretty late to work for the demanding Annalise Keating, and you’re staying up all night to binge watch all their drama. Same thing right? Just like them, late night snacking is a must. However, instead of ordering a pizza that tastes like cardboard, why not make an even better one yourself.

Introducing the delicious Mediterranean Pita Pizza, maybe spice it up with some fall veggies.  If you’re daring add apples. I’m a firm believer that apples can be added to anything. You’ll be super happy you decided not to call Dominoes.

Overload these with whipped cream like Leslie and you’ll have one of the most delicious meals no matter the time.

What better way to enjoy Tv’s scariest hour than with these frozen treats. Greek yogurt and bananas create little ghosts, almost as cute as Evan Peters.

Also because you obviously deserve it try swapping out raisins for Reese’s Pieces or chocolate chips, basically any candy it is almost Halloween after after all.
