Radicchio Salad With Golden Beets and Walnuts
Walnut vinaigrette is especially compatible with bitter greens like radicchio.
Oatmeal Tabbouleh
This is a good tabbouleh alternative for those of you who can’t tolerate wheat, though you must seek out a brand of steel-cut oats that has been processed in a gluten-free facility if you need to avoid gluten. Unlike traditional tabbouleh, which is a really a parsley salad with a little bit of fine bulgur, this is more of a lemony grain salad with a generous amount of parsley and other herbs. For best results, toss the soaked oats with the dressing and refrigerate overnight.
Whole Wheat Breadsticks
I didn’t test a gluten-free breadstick. If you need one, try substituting the gluten-free flour mix by my colleague Melissa Clark for the wheat flour in this week’s recipes. These grainy breadsticks can be irresistible, but that’s all right -- they’re much healthier than the restaurant variety.
Focaccia With Tomatoes and Rosemary
This beautiful bread is a great way to use summer tomatoes, but the heat from the oven will draw rich, deep flavor from the less flavorful ones found in winter as well.
Nava Atlas’s Sweet Potato Tzimmes
In Yiddish, “tzimmes” means a big fuss or commotion. Fortunately, this signature holiday dish, a mélange of sweet vegetables and dried fruits, is not much of a fuss to make.

Zuni Café’s Focaccia
The excellent hamburger at Zuni Café in San Francisco has always been served on a square of toasted rosemary focaccia. The pastry chef Annie Callan offers this house recipe: Scaled to a reasonable size, it is easy to put together and fun to make. Bake it in a 9-by-12-inch rimmed baking sheet for a nice, thick focaccia that can be cut into six 4-inch squares (the trimmings are a delicious snack), and split horizontally into a hamburger bun. The baked focaccia can be kept for several days in an airtight container and needs only a brief toasting to bring it back to life. But you can also roll the dough thinner and bake a more pizzalike flatbread, perhaps topped with stewed onions or peppers.
Walnut Fougasse or Focaccia
What’s called focaccia in Italy is fougasse in Provence. Fougasse, though, is often shaped like a leaf, which is easy to do and very pretty. The nutty, toasty whole grain bread is irresistible.
Homemade Whole Grain Crackers
There are plenty of whole-grain crackers on store shelves, but none taste as good to me as those made at home. You can use a mix of grains and flours to make them, including gluten-free varieties like millet, buckwheat and rice flours, and top them with any number of seeds, herbs or spices. They're quick to mix together and very easy to roll out. "Healthy” crackers can be hard and dry, but this week's offerings are not. I use olive oil in all of them, and some work best with a small amount of butter. I've been making sesame crackers for decades, tweaking my recipe over the years. They have a wholesome, rich, nutty flavor.

Rice Bowl With Cabbage and Baked Tofu
I cooked up a pot of Thai purple sticky rice that had been lingering in the pantry, and then decided how I would turn it into a meal. It was too sticky to use for stir-fried rice so I made stir-fried vegetables and oven-baked tofu, and served up rice bowls topped with both. I thought it might be an altogether too purple meal, but it was quickly devoured, and we are all the more anti-oxidant rich because of the anthocyanins in the red and purple foods.
Onion ‘Marmalade’
Onions become sweet and mild if they are slowly cooked. Use this “marmalade” as a topping for grains, a sandwich spread or a bruschetta topping.
Grape Gazpacho
Seared Red Cabbage Wedges
This recipe, given to me by cookbook author Clifford A. Wright, is incredibly easy to make. Don’t be afraid to use high heat, and be sure to allow the cabbage to color in the pan before turning it. The seared flavor of the cabbage is so appealing it is almost addictive.

Chimichurri Salsa
Shredded Red Cabbage and Carrot Salad
This is a beautiful salad that keeps well for a few days in the refrigerator. For best results, make sure to shred the cabbage very thinly.
