Frittata with Peppers and Potatoes
Potato and Collard Green Hash
Potatoes and greens are a classic, rustic combination, and a very comforting one. The greens are blanched, and then cooked with onion and garlic. After a while, cooked potatoes are added and crushed into the greens. The dish isn’t like mashed potatoes, more like a hash. Serve it as a side dish with fish or chicken, or with other vegetable dishes.
Scallion and Celery Quiche
I’ve written before that I consider celery an underrated vegetable, capable of contributing nuance and texture to a dish. But it would have never occurred to me to have it as one of the main vegetables in a quiche if I hadn’t heard the restaurant critic Jonathan Gold discussing a tarte au céleri that he’d had at Church & State in downtown Los Angeles, a sort of tarte flambée in which celery, celery root and apples stood in for the traditional onions and bacon. I figured if it worked so well in that dish, it could also in a quiche. It does.
Fennel and Orange Bluefish Grilled With Tomatoes, Potatoes and Fennel
White or Pink Beans With Beet Greens and Parmesan
If you use white beans for this savory dish, the beet greens will infuse them with a lovely pink hue. Even more standout is the savory/umami flavor that the Parmesan rinds impart. Parmesan rinds will keep for months. Wrap them in foil and keep in the freezer. They add great depth of flavor to vegetarian soups and stews.
Pasta With Collard Greens and Onions
Slow cooking sweetens the collards in this satisfying pasta dish.
Stir-Fried Beet Greens, Tofu and Beets
I had lots of beet greens on hand during the week that I was testing all of these beet recipes, so I decided to combine them with julienned beets in a stir-fry. The greens should be crisp-tender.
Radiatore with Tomatoes And Beet Greens
Stuffed Roast Pheasant With Sherry Wild Rice
Chipotle Gazpacho
Chipotle contributes heat and smoke to this beautiful blender gazpacho.I love the smoky heat of chipotles in this gazpacho. Cucumber and avocado are garnishes that are both cooling and soothing.
Leek Quiche
I had a beautiful bunch of leeks from the farmers’ market and a Mediterranean crust left over in my freezer from my week of savory pies, so I decided to make this lightened version of a French classic called flamiche. The French version calls for lots of butter and cream or crème fraiche.
Sweet Potato and Apple Kugel
I’ve looked at a number of sweet potato kugel recipes, and experimented with this one a few times until I was satisfied with it. The trick is to bake the kugel long enough so that the sweet potato softens properly without the top drying out and browning too much. I cover the kugel during the first 45 minutes of baking to prevent this. After you uncover it, it’s important to baste the top every 5 to 10 minutes with melted butter.
Rolled Oats With Amaranth Seeds, Maple Syrup and Apple
Grated apple adds a fresh, zesty dimension to just about any bowl of hot (or cold) cereal. The little amaranth seeds contribute protein, lysine and calcium to this mix. They will soften overnight, but they retain texture, which is one of the things I like about the combo.
Black-Eyed Peas With Spinach
Baked Acorn Squash Stuffed With Wild Rice and Kale Risotto
The filling here is a Greco-Italian fusion, with a little American (wild rice) thrown in. I’m usually not a fusion sort of cook, but I wanted something creamy like risotto to fill these squash. Look for small acorn squash so that each person can have one. They’ll be like miniature vegetarian (or vegan) turkeys
Blender Gazpacho With Celery, Carrot, Cucumber and Red Pepper
In a classic gazpacho all of these vegetables except the tomatoes are cut into fine dice and served as accompaniments to the puréed tomato base. In this version, I blend everything together into what is essentially a tangy, pungent vegetable smoothie. You can serve this in glasses or in bowls. I like the tarragon garnish.
Black-Eyed Peas And Kale Ragout
Granny Dameron's New Year's Day Black-Eyed Peas
Quick Gazpacho
Gazpacho sans Bread
The base for this gazpacho is almost classic. It differs from traditional Andalusian gazpacho only in that it contains no bread, which is what gives the authentic dish its unique texture. But the flavor is the same – ripe tomato blended with vinegar, onion, garlic, and olive oil. Keep it in a pitcher in the refrigerator and enjoy a few days of soup.
