Planning a winter menu ?

I want to switch up my menu with the change of the seasonsI have gotten so use to my regular menu that I have no clue where to start.

Of course on cold days, stuff like stew (Which is one of DH's favorite meals) is perfect, but I can't have that as an every night meal.

Any suggestions on fall/winter meals ? Possibly 2 weeks at a time worth?

Any help would be great. I don't even need recipes, just meal ideas would be awesome.

TIA

Chili
Can I have your stew recipe?
Crock pot meals maybe?

Chili
Chicken and dumplings
Soups

We do a lot of soups in the winter.

Goulash
Taco soup
Stew
Chili

Frito pie
Everything else generally stays the same. Like pork chops baked with cream of mushroom soup
Chicken and rice
Chicken fried steak
Crock pot ribs
Lasagna

Quoting Kady:" Chili Can I have your stew recipe? Crock pot meals maybe?"

My stew recipe is very basic. I usually just by the beef that is pre-cut for stew, throw it in some (OK, a lot) of beef broth with potatoes, carrots, and celery. (Whatever other vegetables you would prefer as well). And then let it cook until the veggies are tender. I don't have a crock pot, so I do it on the stove in a large pot.

To thicken the broth, I make a Rue (Is that the right spelling?) By melting butter to a pan, adding a little flour at a time until the flour absorbs all the butter. Than I drop it into the stew and within moments it thickens it up for me. Season to taste. :p

Chili is a great idea! My dad makes an amazing chili, I will have to call him to get his recipe!
