Cosy is on the menu with this delicious Italian vegetarian dish. Polenta is made from cornmeal. You don’t need to buy products specifically labeled polenta, but it is helpful to assure the quality and size of the cornmeal. The real trick to making wonderful creamy polenta is time. Instant polenta can cook in less than 10 minutes, while regular polenta can take up to an hour, based on grind size.
This deceptively healthy and flavourful chili is our favourite go-to for cool autumn evenings. Ground turkey lightens this dish and prevents it from being overly greasy (as chili can often be). The pumpkin adds a rich, satisfying element. Onions, peppers, adobo chilis, black beans, and warm spices round out this recipe to create a one pot meal that is sure to please even the pickiest palates.

Is your garden bursting with zucchini? This is a great main side dish to make to use up some of those garden veggies. Although it looks like rice, orzo is short pasta that cooks up quickly and is perfect for both warm and cold recipes.
The honey, ginger and citrus flavours within the marinade highlight the delicate sweet flavour of the shrimp. If cooking the shrimp on an outside grill, for ease of cooking, you may choose to thread onto a skewer. This recipe is delicious on its own, or with a salad such as spinach or arugula.
