3. Chicken Cutlets, Gnocchi and Kale with Creamy Mushroom Sauce
In addition to being versatile, chicken breasts are cheap, which allows you to use them in a ton of fall dishes, such as this one. Here, they’re served with gnocchi and slightly wilted kale in a velvety mushroom sauce. A meal as warm as your favourite sweater.
4. Tuna Melt
Our gourmet version of this American classic is delicious. The base is similar to the famous grilled cheese: toasted bread with extra melting cheese. But its tuna, mayo, gherkins and dill garnish makes all the difference. We melt for this affordable sandwich that will fill you up nicely.

6. Vegetable and Pork Meatloaf with Red Pepper Barbecue Sauce
If there’s a recipe that’s as comforting as it is affordable, it has to be meatloaf. This homegrown classic, which includes ground meat, onions, breadcrumbs and spices, is among the dishes we love to come back to when the cold weather hits.
7. Beef Stew with Green Vegetables
Among well-priced cuts of beef, the blade roast is a good choice. When you cook it long and slow in broth with beer, ketchup and soy sauce, it soaks up all the flavours and becomes incredibly tender. In this recipe, it stews slowly with green vegetables of your choice, such as broccoli and green beans. It’s the perfect dish to serve when you return from a long hike.

9. Spaghetti Squash Marinara
Squash is THE star of fall. And we love it even more because it’s inexpensive and can be adapted to various dishes, starting with this one, which features spaghetti squash instead of pasta. Served with tomato sauce, Parmesan and basil, it will warm you up from the inside when it’s cold outside.
