Fettuccine With Braised Mushrooms and Baby Broccoli
I buy baby broccoli at my local Trader Joe’s. The stalks are thin, like broccoli raab’s, and the flowers are delicate. If you really want an intense mushroom experience, seek out the fabulous mushroom fettuccine made by Al Dente Pasta. You can find it in gourmet markets, in catalogues such as Zingerman’s, and online.

Artichoke, Mushroom and Potato Ragoût
This robust Provençal ragout is more of a cool weather recipe than Tuesday’s ragout with peppers and tomatoes.

Savory Bread Pudding With Broccoli and Goat Cheese
For this comforting gratin, broccoli is briefly steamed and seasoned with garlic and thyme before being tossed with the bread, eggs, goat cheese and milk. You can include tomatoes if you can still find good ones.

Whole-Wheat Pie Dough
Most of the vegetable tarts that I post on Recipes for Health call for a yeasted olive oil crust that I love to work with. With French quiches, however, I prefer a crust that resembles classic French pastry. However, I always use at least half whole-wheat flour – which is not so French – not only for its nutritional superiority, but also because it gives the resulting shell a nuttier, richer flavor that is particularly welcome in a savory tart. This dough, adapted from Jacquy Pfeiffer’s recipe for pâte brisée in “The Art of French Pastry,” involves more butter than you’re used to seeing in my recipes, but an occasional butter-based crust, especially when it’s made with whole-wheat flour and contains a filling that is all about vegetables, is not going to kill us. Instead, it’s a vehicle for the foods that we want to move toward the center of our plates.

Vegetable Frittata With Quinoa

Cauliflower Roasted With Grapes, Almonds and Curry

Fish Dumplings in Turmeric Sauce (Belehat Arouss)

Stir-Fried Rice Noodles With Beets and Beet Greens
I like to use golden or Chioggia beets for this stir-fry. Whatever beets you use, slice them very thin; for best results use a mandolin. Use a wok, not a pan, for stir-fried noodles as noodles will spill out of a pan. Tongs are a good tool for stirring and tossing the noodles, but a long-handled spatula will also work.

Rice Pilaf With Carrots and Parsley
Carrots and leeks make a sweet combination, but you can also use regular onion in this pilaf. To get 1/2 cup of finely chopped parsley, begin with 2 cups leaves picked from the stems.

Sicilian Pasta With Cauliflower
A favorite island vegetable combines with raisins and saffron to introduce a sweet element to a savory, salty mix. Cauliflower is a favorite vegetable in Sicily, though the variety used most often is the light green cauliflower that we can find in some farmers’ markets in the United States. I found the recipe upon which this is based in Clifford A. Wright’s first cookbook, “Cucina Paradiso: The Heavenly Food of Sicily.” And it is heavenly. The raisins or currants and saffron introduce a sweet element into the savory and salty mix.

Pappardelle With Beets, Beet Greens and Goat Cheese
If you don’t mind eating pink pasta and you like beets with goat cheese, you’ll love this. I roasted my beets, blanched the greens and paired them with wide pappardelle noodles and goat cheese, both excellent partners. Make sure that you don’t drain the water from the pasta pot when the noodles are done (lift them out with a pasta insert or with a skimmer), as you need some of the cooking water to thin out the goat cheese.

Stir-Fried Brown Rice With Red Chard and Carrots
A lush bunch of red Swiss chard that I got at the farmers’ market was the inspiration for this stir-fry. The stems, which stay nice and crunchy, are an important ingredient in the stir-fry, so look for chard with nice wide ribs.

Brown Rice With Carrots and Leeks
This is a very simple, comforting pilaf. In addition to flavonoids and vitamins, the carrots and leeks bring lots of sweet flavor that is beautifully complemented by a final spritz of lemon juice.

Gluten-Free Whole Grain Mediterranean Pie Crust
For the flour here I use the same 70 percent whole grain flour to 30 percent starch (like potato starch, arrowroot or cornstarch) that I used in my whole grain gluten-free muffins a few weeks ago. It is based on a formula created by Shauna James Ahern, a gluten-free food blogger. Because there is no gluten involved you don’t have to worry about overworking the dough, but the dough can break apart if you try to roll it out. I just press it into the pan, which is easy to do. I love the strong, nutty-flavored combination of buckwheat flour and millet flour. If you want a crust with a milder flavor, try a combination of cornmeal and millet flours or teff and millet flours.

Peppers Stuffed With Rice, Zucchini and Herbs
I used a medium-grain rice that I buy at my local Iranian market for these peppers. The package says that the rice is great for stuffing vegetables because it doesn’t swell too much, and it’s right. It goes into the peppers uncooked and steams in the oven, inside the peppers (so it’s important to cook them long enough and cover the baking dish). Make sure that you spoon the sauce left in the baking dish over the rice once the peppers are done. These are good hot or at room temperature. I like to use green peppers.

Spicy Roasted Potatoes With Dijon Mustard, Rosemary and Smoked Paprika
These rousing spuds start out looking wet and wild, but the mixture with vodka and vermouth cooks down to leave the potatoes crispy, crusty and tangy.

Curried Duck Legs With Ginger and Rhubarb

Eggplant, Tomato and Chickpea Casserole
This dish is based on a Middle Eastern staple traditionally served with fresh Arabic bread at room temperature, though I like to serve it warm. The casserole tastes best if made a day ahead.

Oven-Poached Pacific Sole With Lemon Caper Sauce
A fish piccata of sorts, this dish is easy to make and the lemon-caper sauce marries well with delicate varieties like sole, fluke or flounder, as well as more robust fish like swordfish. Start by laying fish fillets out in a baking dish and seasoning them with salt and pepper. Finely chop some shallots and briefly cook them in a skillet before adding wine. Pour the wine and shallots over the fish, cover with foil and bake until opaque and the fish pulls apart easily when gently probed with a fork. Meanwhile, whisk together garlic, capers, lemon juice and olive oil. When the fish emerges from the oven, pour the liquid from the dish back into the skillet to make a pan sauce. Reduce it to about 1/4 cup — thicker than you may imagine — stirring all the while. Add the garlic-caper mixture and some chopped parsley, whisk together and serve on top of the fillets, the mild flesh of the fish bathing in the bright, brawny flavors of the sauce.

Swiss Chard Fritters
This recipe, adapted from “Jerusalem,” by Yotam Ottolenghi and Sami Tamimi, appeared in The Times in 2012 as part of a Hanukkah food article. It is packed with fragrant dill and cilantro, and studded with feta. The fritters would go well with smoked salmon and a little yogurt, or a garlicky spread of beets, dill, walnuts and horseradish that pulls from the Ashkenazi tradition. Either way, they are a great vegetable counterpoint to the starchier dishes of Hanukkah. They cook fast, and should be served warm.

Dandelion Tart
This tart tastes rich and creamy, though there is no cream in it. When you blanch the dandelion greens, they lose some of their bitterness.
