Fall has a way of changing what sounds good for dinner. As temperatures drop and the days get shorter, crisp summer produce gives way to heartier vegetables, warming spices, and fruits that practically beg to be baked, roasted or folded into something comforting.

Some are familiar staples, while others could give your autumn cooking a welcome shake-up. Several of these foods are at their best in the fall, making now a particularly good time to add them to your grocery list.
