Pot Roast with Winter Root Vegetables

This dish from the February 2005 "Eat Well for Less" set of six budget-wise menus is ideal for Sunday dinner because it leaves leftovers for another night and possibly even sandwich fillings for weekday lunches. Root vegetables are the economical in-season choice.

Slow Cooker Pork Charcutière

This recipe incorporates all the flavours of a charcuterie platter into a single dish. It can be difficult to cut this tender roast into thin slices, so separate the meat into chunks before serving. It will be much easier—and just as tasty! For a hearty meal, serve with mashed potatoes and our Quick Braised Red Cabbage.

Pepparkakor

Have a batch of these pretty and crispy Swedish ginger thins ready to go so you can munch on them all holiday season long. 

Crunchy-Top Pumpkin Cheesecake

Welcome a dramatic new dessert to your fall table this year. Our creamy pumpkin cheesecake, glowing russet brown with easy-to-make caramel topping or shards, will add pizzazz to a bountiful feast.

Spiced Rack of Venison with Apple Ginger Chutney

Simple Indian spicing perks up a luscious rack of venison, which is accompanied by apple chutney. The chutney should have some heat, so adjust to taste from a very mild pinch of cayenne to a hot 1/2 tsp (2 mL). Since you will have more than enough chutney, serve the remainder with roast pork or turkey or with aged Cheddar cheese and crackers. Caribou or elk racks can also be made this way

Swedish Meatballs With Gravy

Look for Lingonberry jam in select grocery stores, eastern European and Scandinavian specially stores as well as the Ikea Swedish Food Market. 

Maple Mincemeat Turnovers

Maple syrup and maple-flavoured whisky liqueur bring a touch of Canada to this holiday classic. Individual turnovers make for easy entertaining. Freeze the unbaked turnovers and bake them straight from the freezer. If maple-flavoured whisky is unavailable, you can substitute brandy.
