This tarte tatin uses a colorful combination of Yukon gold potatoes, sweet potatoes, carrots, and parsnips. Fresh rosemary and sage add extra autumnal flair. Who needs flowers when you’ve got this holiday centerpiece?

Treat this as a weekend project (quick it's not) and your Sunday supper will be off the charts.

If you're not a lamb person, ground beef will also taste great.

This comforting pie of shredded chicken and softened leeks takes inspiration from cock-a-leekie, a traditional Scottish soup.

The unsung hero of this dish? The nutty-sweet garlic.
