Food you miss in summer - and rediscover in the fall

Every fall, I rediscover food that I love - but hardly eat during the heat of summer. For my lunch this week, I have beet stew with lamb meatballs...

It has wonderful curry spices in it, plus lemon juice for a little acid.

What foods do you "find" again in the fall?

Corn & Crab chowder (or chikkunz n corn). drool

I can eat soups year round (and do) but since I don't just cook for just myself, soups as main meal are more of a fall winter thing here.

It looks kind of gross, but I love lamb and I love beets, so I went ahead and made a copy of the recipe.

Do you remember that Uncle Ben's Indian flavored rice? I think it was called International Flavors or something or other. Anyway, it was a rice that had all the seasonings in it, even the currants. It was fantastic with lamb. They stopped making it years ago, but that rice was the bomb!

Make it. If you like beets and lamb - and the flavors of curry - you will not be disappointed. Trust me.

Root vegetables and sage.

I like to roast parsnips and carrots and potatoes and turnips and onions and garlic and sage with some olive oil and salt and pepper. It's positively divine.

Roasted anything is great in the fall.

Chili. I made root veggie lentil chili mole a week or so ago. Yum.

Ans soup. Tonight I'm making cauliflower soup and baking fresh rosemary drop biscuits. mmmmmmmmmm...

In the last photo, it looks like three meatballs and three beets. But the beets aren't cut up. confuse

There are no tomatoes in it. (Only a couple tablespoons of tomato paste.) The beets are what makes the sauce red.
