What types of food do you cook when the weather starts to get cooler?

Question

I am tired of the same old thing. Give me some ideas for this cooler weather.

Answer 1

pot roast with dinner rolls.

Answer 2

That is when I start to bring out the crockpot. You can find tons of crockpot receipes online but I cook from sight and taste. I grew up with a southern country grandmother so all mine are in my head. Some good ideas are Chicken and Dumplings, Chili and Beans, Enchillada Soup, Beef Stews, Baby Carrots in Brown Sugar and Honey, Potatos and Green Beans in Garlic and butter... I make it all in my crockpot.... Add a fantastic pan of cornbread and butter to any and you have a meal for everyone.

Answer 3

Over here in australia it gets cold in june so i like to cook pies and pastries. Added on the side with mash and steamed vegies.
With your pastries just cook your fav meat and add Broccoli, mushrooms, a leek. What ever you like. If its chicken add a creamy chicken and mushroom soup , some cream/sourcream. Once its all cooked let it cool down then put it on your pastry, fold them up and paste with egg wash. It takes 15 minutes until the pastry is cooked then there done.......

Answer 4

I use regular kielbasa, only add celery hearts not leaves or celery seed. I use brown mustard not honey mustard, unless i have both, usually have reg mustard or brown. I cut potatoes in cubes big cubes so don't get mushy, I love garlic so i add a clove or two.
