Tacos With Black Beans and Chard
If you are looking to feed a crowd, one way to meet the challenge is to pick up a supply of corn tortillas and make a big pot of beans and some other dishes that are at home in a taco. Buy some salsa, or make your own, and your house will be taco party central. You can make fillings in advance and arrange in bowls or on platters. Then all it takes is warming tortillas in a microwave, oven or steamer, and guests can assemble their own tacos. These beans are great in tacos, but can also be eaten on their own.
Grilled Cheese Sandwich on the Grill
If you have a hankering for a next-level grilled cheese, make it over the fire. Cooking it low and slow with the grill lid on means that the bread not only crisps, but also acquires a deep smoky flavor. (Stale bread works especially well here.) If you want to add chopped grilled vegetables, pickled peppers or anything else to your sandwich, mix it cold or at room temperature with the cheese before piling it onto the bread.
Herb Crepes With Goat Cheese Filling
Crepes make delicious, easy finger foods. Cut them in half, top with a filling, then fold them in half and again in half, so they’re like little coronets. These thin pancakes are easy to make in today’s heavy nonstick crepe pans. Give the batter plenty of time to rest so that the flour swells and softens; that will make the crepes delicate.
Potato Gnocchi
Viennese Crescents
The following recipe came from the original edition of ''The New York Times Cook Book'' and was published on Dec. 18, 1955, when Nika Hazelton, the food writer, said it was the greatest cookie recipe ever devised.
Roasted Root Vegetables
Sabine’s Stuffed Zucchini Flowers
We found zucchini flowers, just picked that morning, at the market in a little town called Céreste, and we snatched them up. You can use the same filling for stuffed tomatoes. The bread is soaked in milk, so if you have some stale bread lying around, this is a great use for it.
Green Rice Pilaf
This verdant side gets its color from a mix of parsley, cilantro, chives and mint. Chicken stock adds depth, and a bit of lemon and soy sauce brighten the flavors at the end. It goes well with just about anything, but you might pair it with your next chicken or fish dish for a rewarding weeknight dinner.
Tomato, Kale and Mozzarella Sandwich With Parsley Pesto
This sandwich is an example of how you can get more vegetables into your diet and also get away from the drab ham and cheese you’ve been taking to work. It’s a stack of parsley pesto, Roma tomatoes, mozzarella and blanched kale on focaccia.
Raspberry Rose Granita
Pasta With Pesto, Potatoes and Broccoli
Tangerine Sorbet
Tangerines, clementines, and mandarins are interchangeable for this light, refreshing sorbet.
Chard Leaves Stuffed With Rice and Herbs
Large chard leaves make beautiful rolls. I dice the meaty stems and cook them with onion and garlic, then combine them with medium-grain rice and lots of fresh herbs. The stems add great texture to the filling.
Portobello Schnitzel
Stuffed Collard Greens
Collard greens are great leaves to stuff. They remind me a bit of grape leaves, though they don’t need to be brined before you stuff them. Just remove the stems, blanch them, fill and cook like cabbage leaves. I used medium-grain Cal-Rose rice that I bought at my local Iranian market for these; this type of rice is perfect for stuffing grape leaves and vegetables, the package told me, because it doesn’t swell when cooking and won’t break the leaf.
Golden Raisin And Caper Vinaigrette
Herb And Shallot Salsa
Roasted Portobellos With Pesto
Homemade or storebought pesto can be used in this 30-minute recipe that's perfect for meatless Monday (or any day for that matter). Just scrape away the gills of the mushroom with a spoon, toss the caps with a little olive oil, salt and pepper and roast gill-side down for about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven, fill with pesto and pop them back into the oven for about 10 more minutes. Serve with a pile of rice or a tangle of noodles slicked with butter. There you have it: Satisfying and simple.
Green Salad With Croutons
Spring Rolls With Tofu, Vegetables, Rice Noodles and Herbs
Most spring rolls come with dipping sauce. I decided to put the dipping sauce on the inside, spread on the tofu, for a more portable, flavorful roll.
Iranian Herb and Walnut Frittata
This is just one of many versions of a classic Iranian frittata filled with fresh herbs and walnuts. Some versions include dried rose petals, which perfume the frittata. I’ve substituted a drop of rose water, because that is what I had in my pantry.
Cream of Raspberries And Yogurt
Orecchiette With Basil and Pistachio Pesto and Green and Yellow Beans
The small ear-shaped pasta provides hollows for the delicious sauce to settle into. I’ve combined pasta, pesto and green beans before, but I’ve never used orecchiette, the small ear-shaped pasta. I cut the beans into small lengths so that everything is bite-size. I love the way the pesto settles into the little hollows of the orecchiette.
