Many of my favorite dishes for the winter months are the traditional ones, for instance Shepherds Pie. This is a dish now often made with ground beef, but traditionally made with leftover roast lamb which has been put through the grinder attachment on your food processor, or a mincer. Also using leftover gravy, carrots and mashed potatoes (winter vegetables). The Shepherds Pie Recipe website has the old fashion way with tips on modernising it! As well a good source of other dishes from various cultures, based on the personal experiences of a world traveler and his wife, the latter of Italian ancestry so, of course another mine of recipes!
