I stop eating salady foods around September usually and as the temp plunges I start to yearn for those hearty, warming foods which are one of the great things about the Autumn and Winter months.
So, with this in mind I thought I'd initiate a thread in this vein.
Some personal favourites:
Risottos; mushroom, cheese (carciotta, parmeggiano reggiano, etc), vegetable
Mashed potato/squash/garlic combinations
Cheese pasta dishes
Gnocchi dishes - with gorgonzola or other strong cheeses
Polenta, with wild boar, or sausage or cheese.
Yesterday I did a butternut squash risotto which was fantastic accompanied by a Frescobaldi Chianti Rufina. The gf really appreciated it after a hard afternoon shopping in the crisp cold air....

Further, as a sweet offering, I can repeat what I've said in another thread: a classic panettone slathered with Nutella. Probably best not to try this after most of the above, however.
