In the summer, it’s a cinch to meet your daily quota of fruit and veggies. Tender, juicy produce like heirloom tomatoes and sweet corn are easy to turn into veggie sautés, and if you’ve got a grill, nothing hits the spot like a portobello burger. But when autumn hits, it’s time to make a few menu tweaks. Even though items like potatoes, rutabaga, and turnips are heartier, it doesn’t mean they’re that much harder to cook. These 13 recipes show just how easy (and delicious) it is to add more fall vegetables to your diet.
