Marinated Olives

These are inspired by Patricia Wells’ “Chanteduc Rainbow Olive Collection” in her wonderful book “The Provence Cookbook.” It is best to use olives that have not been pitted.

Egg and Herb Salad

Egg and Herb Salad

This is not like the egg salad you get at the local deli (hard-cooked eggs, lots of mayonnaise, celery). It is creamy, but the dressing is yogurt-based, and the salad is packed with lots of vivid, fresh herbs.

Chana Dal, New Delhi-Style

Julie Sahni, an Indian cooking teacher, cookbook author and chef, says that in much of Indian cooking, the less you fuss with beans, the better they cook. This recipe, for spiced split chickpeas, calls for a mathani, a sort of hand blender, but if you don’t have one and don’t want to buy one, a potato masher will do the trick.

Tempeh and Wild Mushroom Fricassee

If there is such a thing as a stick-to-your-ribs vegan meal, this is it. Loaded with four types of mushrooms and chunks of tempeh sautéed in white wine and soy sauce, it is hearty fare perfect for chilly autumn or winter days. The recipe came to The Times in 2010 when the Well blog featured a number of vegetarian recipes from Cooking Light magazine.

Gluten-Free Pumpkin Dumplings With Radicchio

Gluten-Free Pumpkin Dumplings With Radicchio

Silvana Nardone, the founding editor of the food magazine Every Day With Rachael Ray, developed this recipe for her gluten-intolerant son. It's incredibly easy. Just mix together a can of pumpkin purée, a couple eggs and a cup of gluten-free flour blend. Plop spoonfuls into a pot of boiling water, and in minutes – dumplings. Toss those with a quick sauté of onion, red pepper flakes and radicchio for a filling, healthy dinner. The dumplings are super light and pillowy, but if you prefer a firmer texture, add more gluten-free flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, to the pasta dough.

Spring Rolls With Spinach, Mushrooms, Sesame, Rice and Herbs

I steam the spinach just until it collapses for these rolls and combine it with rice instead of the more traditional noodles. You can use brown, regular basmati or jasmine rice

Pear Clafoutis

If you don’t want to make a crust but want something tartlike for your Thanksgiving dessert, a clafoutis, which is something like a cross between a flan and a pancake, is a great choice. It’s a very easy dessert, yet it’s always impressive.

Apple Pear Strudel With Dried Fruit and Almonds

Apple Pear Strudel With Dried Fruit and Almonds

This strudel is made with phyllo dough. When I tested it the first time, I found that I had enough filling for two strudels. Rather than cut the amount of filling, I increased the number of strudels to 2, as this is a dessert you can assemble and keep, unbaked, in the freezer.

Oatmeal Tabbouleh

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.
