Simple Swiss Chard with Caramelized Onions and Balsamic Vinegar
I am always looking for new, fresh veggies to try. Last week, one of our local farmers offered me some Lucullus Swiss Chard. Ever heard of it? Me, neither. I decided to give it a try and boy was it delicious! It had beautiful green leaves and white stalks that almost looked like skinny celery. Lucullus is apparently an heirloom variety but this recipe would work with any swiss chard you can find.
Chopped Eggs on English Muffins with Asparagus and Cheese Sauce
This is a dish I make for my family or friends for brunch, particularly at Easter time. It's also a filling, inexpensive "breakfast for supper" dish and is a great way to use up extra eggs.

Ramp and Chèvre Pizza with Red Pepper Pesto and Spelt Crust
Let's be clear: This pizza is assembled from store-bought ingredients. If you'd like to make your own spelt crust and red pepper pesto, it will be amazing. The spelt dough I buy weighs about a pound and generally yields two thin pizzas, so it would be easy to double.

Grilled Goat Cheese with Apple on Cranberry Pecan Bread
Happy National Grilled Cheese Day! Since we’re on a Hunger Games kick, this sandwich is also inspired by our culinary book of the month. It’s a hybrid between the fruit-and-nut bread with goat cheese that Gale and Katniss eat at the beginning of the first book, and the apple and goat cheese tarts that Peeta serves at his bakery. If you haven’t read Hunger Games, then this is just an unaffiliated, super classy Grilled Goat Cheese Sandwich on Cranberry Pecan Bread with Apples. Enjoy!

Valencia Orange Marmalade
For the recipe below, I have combined lemons with Valencia oranges, whose season starts in spring. The tartness of the lemons tempers the natural sweetness of the oranges, playing up the natural strengths of both. They make a stunning pair.
Blintz
These cheesy gooey delights are both sweet and tangy and a perfect every day breakfast with only 4 ingredients. Growing up my mom called them blintz, and it wasn’t until my freshmen year at the cafeteria in college that I realized these are not your traditional blintz. High in protein and low in fat these are the easiest and healthiest “pancakes” I have every made.

Masala Dosai
The rice used for this Dosai recipe is a special par boiled rice that is labeled & sold as 'idli rice' in the USA, but jasmine rice is a good substitute.

Macaroons
This is a great Macaroons recipe, they are perfectly fluffy & sweet without falling apart- the key is really beating the sugar & egg whites. No gluten and dairy.

Turkish Mint Lemonade
This Turkish Mint Lemonade is one of the most refreshing drinks we've ever had, because it's minty and not too sweet. Recipe can easily be doubled or tripled.

Joan Nathan’s Matzo Ball Soup
For children (and arguably most adults), the most welcome Passover dish is chicken soup with matzo balls. My matzo balls, neither heavy as lead nor light as a feather, are al dente, infused with fresh ginger and nutmeg. I like to freeze them, and the soup, in advance.
Roasted Bananas with Maple-Bourbon Sauce
This is a Dessert recipe that is warm, filling, energy-boosting & delicious. Bourbon & Maple were made for each other but you can also use rum for the Sauce.
Roasted Garlic Brussels Sprouts
It goes without saying that I love Brussels sprouts. Testing all sorts of variations is my specialty. I'm an avid fan of roasted garlic, as i think most everyone is (or anyone that I would consider a normal person), so putting the two together was long coming. Here I've combined sweet roasted garlic and honey, with my old friend, Brussels sprouts.

Sweet n' Buttery Cabbage and Onions
I made this as a piroshki filling for a Russian-themed dinner party I threw last weekend. I had discovered the Pike's Place Market cookbook in the Los Angeles Central Library which had the recipe for the first and most memorable piroshki I ever ate, at a Russian cafe in the market when I was a child. The recipe for the filling, however, is my own, though the ingredients are typical for cabbage piroshkis. The onions are carmelized for 45 minutes until they become delicious threads of sweetness, and the cabbage goes in for at least another half an hour along with butter, salt, and pepper. The result is soft, savory, sweet, and addictive. Quite a bit of the filling went straight into my mouth and not in to the pirsohkis. If you do use this for piroshkis, you can make it while the dough is in its first rise. I recommend putting on a comforting black and white movie (Arsenic and Old Lace in my case) and absorbing the homey scent of carmelizing onions while getting up now and then to stir them.

Alice Medrich's New Classic Coconut Macaroons
This Classic Coconut Macaroon recipe calls for those wide, sloping unsweetened coconut shavings, also called coconut chips, sold at health food stores nowadays.

2-2-1 Maple Syrup Salad Dressing
Follow this simple maple syrup salad dressing recipe and-- lickety-split ––you have the easiest, best-tasting salad dressing ever.

Nutty Crispy Tofu
This is slightly crispy on the outside and soft and tasty on the inside. The nutritional yeast gives it a slightly nutty flavor, but feel free to substitute with corn starch. I usually serve this tofu over a bed of jasmine rice, sometimes over stir-fried vegetables too, and sometimes just with the dipping sauce. Oh and my five year old daughter loves it!

Cashew Cream of Broccoli Soup
I try to save my dairy for really good cheese, but that doesn't mean I don't like a nice, rich cream-of-whatever soup once in a while. Soaked cashews blend up nicely and give this broccoli soup a velvety texture.

Outstanding Celeriac Soup with White Truffle Oil
I once had a similar recipe at a restaurant in Madison, WI as an amuse bouche. I tried to figure out all of the flavors and also searched online for some ideas. I came up with this recipe. It is simply the best soup around and so very simple. The white truffle oil to me is what kicks this up a notch. I drizzle this stuff on everything. It I could take a bath in it I would!
True life support green smoothie
I am new to Food52 and was thrilled with the new contest : celery! I love celery, have it fresh in the house all the time, thought this would be an ideal contest for me. Spent last two days looking for a recipe in which celery is the main game. I braised it but realized that, whilst it was a delight, it needed to be paired with other ingredients food to really shine. I thought I would share my smoothie recipe - the special start to my day.

truffle-esque: date and espresso truffles
in the world of confectionary truffles are cherry sized balls of soft chocolate paste. sometimes they are encased in a shell of harder chocolate or dusted in a bittersweet cacao. my date and espresso truffles only partly fit this description as they aren’t crafted from soft chocolate paste. they are made from a paste of dried fruit and nuts (dates and almonds) hydrated in espresso and kahlúa. i rolled the paste into cherry sized balls and then dusted them with an extra fine and dark cocoa courtesy of la maison du chocolat.
