As the air cools and the leaves turn, there’s something especially welcoming about coming home to a warm, satisfying meal. Chef Paul believed food should do more than fill your belly — it should nourish both body and soul. He saw every meal as an opportunity to bring people together, lift the spirit, and create lasting memories around the table.
Inspired by Chef Paul’s love of bold, layered flavors, these recipes celebrate the season with hearty ingredients like squash, root veggies, and warming spices. They reflect his belief that great seasoning is at the heart of every dish, transforming everyday meals into something extraordinary—whether it’s a simple weeknight dinner or a weekend showstopper shared with friends and family.
Beef Noodle Casserole
This one is casserole perfection—layers of egg noodles, beef, creaminess from sour cream and cream cheese, and bubbling cheese on top. It’s rich but never overwhelming, with the sophisticated twist of both Meat Magic® and Magic Seasoning Salt® bringing savory complexity. Ideal for feeding a crowd or making ahead for leftovers.
Green Chili
Straight from Chef Paul’s legendary K-Paul’s Louisiana Kitchen, this Green Chili was once the star of his famous Crawfish Enchiladas Con Queso—equally delicious when made with shrimp. And beyond the enchiladas, the chili itself shines as a hearty sauce over spaghetti or rice when you want a little extra Louisiana magic at home. Ground pork, a mix of sweet and hot peppers, jalapeños, onions, and stock simmer low and slow to create deep, layered flavor, while Meat Magic®, cumin, and nutmeg add warmth to every bite.
Slow Cooker Oxtail & Vegetable Stew
For days when you want deep flavor without constant fuss, this stew delivers. Oxtails slow-cooked with butternut squash, carrots, tomatoes, garlic, red wine, and broth, all seasoned with Meat Magic®. The result is meaty, hearty, and soul-soothing—the kind of dish that fills the house with warmth when you need a little extra coziness.
Pot Pie
A non-traditional twist on a beloved classic. Tender turkey or chicken, sweet potatoes, and green beans are baked under a golden cheddar biscuit crust. Poultry Magic® and Magic Pepper Sauce add depth and spice, turning a simple pot pie into a dish worth gathering around the table.
Turkey & Fall Vegetable Stew
This stew celebrates the season’s bounty in every bite. Tender turkey breast mingles with turnips, squash, and leafy greens in a silky roux, brought to life with Poultry Magic®. Light yet hearty, it’s a colorful bowl of comfort that warms you up without weighing you down—perfect for crisp autumn days.
New England Butternut Bisque
Smooth, creamy, and just sweet enough, this bisque captures everything we love about fall. Sweetie Magic® highlights the natural sweetness of butternut squash, while butter, cream, onions, and stock create a velvety, decadent base. Elegant enough for guests yet simple enough for a quiet night at home, it’s comfort in its most refined form.
Banana & Pumpkin Spice Bread
Of course, no comforting meal is complete without something sweet to finish it off. This cozy loaf brings all the flavors of fall together in one irresistible treat. Ripe bananas and pumpkin blend with cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, allspice, and a touch of Sweetie Magic® for just the right sweetness. Enjoy it warm with butter, toasted alongside your morning coffee, or save a loaf in the freezer for a treat on a chilly day.
From the first simmer to the last bite, these dishes capture the spirit of the season. With Chef Paul’s Magic Seasonings, every meal becomes a moment worth savoring.
