Everyone needs a fried rice recipe in his or her repertoire, because it's great for using up leftovers. When you don't have any meat in the fridge or freezer, you'll likely have eggs on hand to turn what's normally a side dish into this complete meal.
This velvety, nutty-textured soup tastes almost too rich to be meatless, but it is! For a slightly thinner, dairy-free version, replace butter with additional olive oil and replace cream with almond, rice or soy milk.
A mélange of farro, wild rice, dried apricots and pomegranate, this beautiful, hearty side will add a hit of fall flavour to your holiday table.
Steaming then lightly caramelizing the broccoli gives added flavour. Serve the frittata hot or at room temperature with an arugula and tomato salad. Save the remaining broccoli stems for a stir-fry, or to add to salad or coleslaw.
Sweet chestnuts and meaty mushrooms add fall flavour to an otherwise classic stuffing. Look for ready-to-eat peeled whole chestnuts in the grocery store.
Stuffed with smoky pancetta and creamy goat cheese, these mushrooms are a party mainstay. Use small button mushrooms for hors d'oeuvre-size portions.
Our tender beef Stroganoff can be made in less time but with just as much flavour as the classic Russian version. Seared steak, folded in near the end, is our sneaky cheat.
Charring the cherry tomatoes adds flavour, and they still hold their shape. If you want to make this recipe ahead of time, you can marinate the chicken overnight. Serve sprinkled with cilantro if desired, along with grilled naan or Greek-style pita bread.

Perfect for lunch or dinner, this satisfying bowl will keep you full and happy.
The essence of this Vietnamese pho lies in the long-cooking, rich beef broth which forms the base of the soup - the slow cooker is the ultimate tool for the task. Fresh, vibrant garnishes, like bean sprouts, assorted fresh herbs such as mint, cilantro and basil, thinly sliced onion, chilies and lime wedges, make each and every bowl of soup unique. Serve them at the table in separate bowls so each person can create the pho of their dreams.
