Halloween Treats on a Stick • CELEBRATE HALLOWEEN’S NOT-SO-SPOOKY SIDE WITH A SPREAD OF CUTE AND WHIMSICAL SWEETS.

Fresh From the Pumpkin Patch • When autumn’s most ubiquitous squash is ripe for the picking, these roasted recipes use them in the most delicious ways imaginable.

Roast Your Own Pumpkin Seeds • The hidden reward for pumpkin carving is all those crunchy little seeds inside. Just clean, toss with a customized seasoning, and roast for a treat you can’t stop munching.

All the Right Stuff • Living the plant-slant lifestyle is simple when you stuff your fresh produce with contrasting textures and flavors. Veggie vessels with tasty fillings are our new dinnertime heroes.

Here’s to the Humble Cranberry • WITH A RICH CRIMSON COLOR AND SWEET-TART FLAVOR, CRANBERRIES ARE A FRUIT THAT IS TRULY NATIVE TO NORTH AMERICA. AND RIGHT NOW IS WHEN THEY HAPPEN TO HIT THEIR SEASONAL BEST. LET’S TAKE A MOMENT TO WAX POETIC ABOUT THEIR VIRTUES IN THESE FRESH NEW RECIPES.

Stew Season • When the autumn weather turns chilly, a potful of hearty stew brings warmth and comfort in high supply. Seasonal veggies and wholesome ingredients create flavor combos the whole family will cozy up to.

We Dig Beets • The real jewels of the garden are just below the surface. Showcasing a breadth of shades—crimson, gold, purple, white, even striped—nutrient-dense beet roots lend their robust and earthy flavor to these five new recipes.

Pasta • Heaps of pasta are always in season, but the accoutrements on these five cozy dishes leave no doubt they are slanted in autumn’s favor.

Just Chili Out • Few meals stoke more regional pride and debate as chili. The OG Texas version was crafted for carnivores (beans need not apply). Cincinnati-style is heavily spiced and served over piping-hot spaghetti. Certain Midwesterners plate their bowls of chili with … a cinnamon roll? You betcha! There are so many ways to spin the classic, including these five takes where the main tie that binds them is always chiles (both fresh and powdered).

How to Beat a Snack Attack • IT’S 3 O’CLOCK AND YOUR TUMMY IS RUMBLING. LUCKILY YOU PACKED A HEARTY TRAIL-MIX TREAT.

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary & Thyme • At first glance, plumes of leafy green herbs may be indistinguishable from one another. But essential oils within give them each intense personality and flair.

Harvest Hues • Nature makes the prettiest rainbows—whether they’re up in the sky or out back in your garden. We used one from the latter to create a multihue menu of smooth soups as big in flavor as they are in color.

On the Side • Side dishes get a boost! Whether you need a make-and-take dish for a celebration or something to serve up with a take-it-slow Sunday dinner, these refreshed classics go above and beyond.

Bottoms Up! • When you flip the pan upside down, bundt cakes drop from the mold with all the decoration they’ll ever need. The beauty is in their intricately etched nooks and crannies, and a little fluff on top only adds to the magic.

Cinnamon Loves Sugar • Sugar and spice bring out everything nice about one another—and the spirit of autumn baking too.
