From Dishing Up The Dirt
1 large bunch of kale, washed and torn into bite size pieces (remove some of the large tough stems)
1 clove of garlic, minced
3 tablespoons tahini
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
3 tablespoons coconut aminos (or low sodium soy sauce or tamari)
1 tablespoon water (plus more to thin if needed)
3 tablespoons nutritional yeast
1 avocado, diced
3 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
3 tablespoons toasted pine nuts
sea salt
In a large bowl use your hands to lightly massage the raw kale for a few seconds.
Using an immersion blender or small food processor puree the garlic, tahini, vinegar, lemon juice, coconut aminos, water and nutritional yeast until smooth and creamy. Taste for seasonings and adjust as needed.
Pour half of the dressing into the bowl with the kale and use your hands to massage the dressing into the leaves. Add the diced avocado, toasted sesame seeds, pine nuts and a sprinkle of sea salt. Divide between plates and drizzle with additional dressing.
Recipe: Lentil Salad With Carrots, Tomatoes, & Peppers
Adapted from Epicurious
1/2 lb brown lentils, rinsed
2 bay leaves
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 bell peppers, cored, seeded and diced into 1/2-inch pieces
1/2 cup diced carrot
1/2 cup chopped tomato
1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/4 cup thinly sliced kalamata olives
1/4 cup diced onion
1/4 cup fresh chopped parsley
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
2 tbsp olive oil
3/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
Place lentils, bay leaves, and garlic in a large saucepan. Add water to cover and bring to a boil. Turn heat to medium-low, cover and simmer for 30 to 40 minutes, until lentils are tender. Drain, discarding bay leaves. Transfer to a bowl. Add peppers, carrot, tomato, feta, olives, onion, and parsley. Toss to combine. In a separate bowl, whisk together vinegar, oil, salt, and black pepper. Pour over lentil mixture and toss.
Recipe: Roasted Peppers with Capers and Mozzarella
Adapted from Smitten Kitchen
3 bell peppers
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 clove garlic, minced
Salt, to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons capers, drained
2 tablespoons basil, chopped
1/2 pound ball of mozzarella, sliced (this is a great place to use the really fresh stuff, if you can get it)
Roast the peppers: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line peppers on a large baking sheet and roast them for 45 minutes to 1 hour, using tongs to rotate them 1/4 of the way, rotisserie-style, every 15 minutes. It’s safer to extend the cooking time than shorten it, as the skins will only come off easily if they’re fully cooked.
Once they’re fully roasted, cover the pepper tray with another piece of foil and let the peppers cool. When they’re cool enough to handle, remove the skins. Remove seeds and slice sections of pepper into 1/4-inch wide strips.
Toss peppers with red wine vinegar, garlic and a few pinches of salt. Cover and let marinate for an hour or overnight (and up to 4 days) in the fridge.
To serve, arrange peppers on a plate. Adjust seasonings, adding salt, freshly ground black pepper or additional vinegar, to taste. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with capers and basil and arrange mozzarella over salad.
Eat with some crusty bread and a glass of wine, preferably al fresco.
Recipe: Radicchio, Farro, and Tomato Salad
(This is from my (Alice's) Brain originally from Rand of One Leaf Farm, so the recipe is about as good as its going to get)
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups Farro
3 c vegetable broth
1 small head or 1/2 larde head Radicchio (or to taste)
1 cup Feta Cheese (or to taste)
Tomatoes (we usually use about 2 large)
Dressing
1 Shallot
1/2 cup olive oil
2 Tbsp lemon juice
2 Tbsp champagne vinegar
small spoon of dijon mustard
* the ratio for this recipe is 2 parts oil, 1 part vinegar, but you can play with the proportions or make more or less to have on hand
Cook the Farro or Wheat Berries in vegetable broth using the linked method, or by combining the broth and farro, bringing the liquid to a boil, and reducing to a simmer - cooking for about 30-35 minutes or until done.
While the grain is cooking, finely mince the shallot. In a small saucepan, cook the shallot in the olive oil on medium heat. Once the shallot has softened, remove from heat and add mustard, lemon juice, and champagne vinegar.
Then chiffonade your radicchio and cut up tomatoes or cherry tomatoes into wedges.
I like to toss the radicchio in the salad dressing while the dressing is still warm, to wilt the radicchio just a bit. Then add the cooked farro, and feta and tomatoes at the end. This is just a rough guideline, so adjust the amounts to suit your taste - oh, and don't forget salt!! If you've got a bit of parsley around, that would be a beautiful addition too!
p.s. my roommate once roasted dates and prosciutto and I think those would be an insane and wonderfully decadent addition to this dish
Recipe: Fingerling Potato Salad With Crispy Chickpeas & Roasted Garlic Mustard Green Pesto
from Dishing Up The Dirt
Roasted Garlic Mustard Green (spicy salad mix) Pesto
2 medium heads of garlic
1/4 cup almonds, lightly toasted in a dry skillet until golden brown
1 bunch of mustard greens, about 3 1/2 cups, roughly chopped
2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil + additional to thin if necessary
salt + pepper to taste
Crispy Chickpeas & Capers
1 1/2 cups cooked chickpeas- if from the can rinsed, drained and patted dry
1/4 cup capers, drained and patted dry
2 cloves of garlic, chopped
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
pinch of salt + pepper
3 Tablespoons olive oil
Potatoes
1 1/2 pounds fingerling potatoes, larger potatoes cut in half lengthwise and smaller potatoes left whole
2 Tablespoons olive oil
salt + pepper
Parmesan cheese for serving
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 400F. Prepare the pesto by trimming the tops of the 2 heads of garlic and lightly peeling the outer loose layers of skin-keeping the garlic heads themselves intact. Drizzle the exposed tops of the garlic with a little olive oil and place them in tin foil. Wrap them up in a small packet and roast in the oven for 45 minutes. Let cool completely and then squeeze the garlic from the skins right into the bowl of a food processor.
Pulse garlic, almonds, mustard greens, lemon juice, olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a food processor until smooth. Taste test and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more oil or a splash of water to thin the sauce if necessary.
Toss the chickpeas, capers, garlic, coriander, salt and pepper with the oil. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet and roast in the oven (400F) until golden brown and crisp. About 18-22 minutes. Shake the pan a few times while roasting.
Toss the potatoes with the oil, salt and pepper. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet and roast in the same oven as the chickpeas and capers until cooked through and tender. About 30-40 minutes (depending on the size of your potatoes)
In a large bowl toss the potatoes with the crispy chickpeas and capers. Scoop in a healthy spoonful of the pesto and toss until evenly coated, adding more pesto as necessary. Divide among plates and serve with freshly grated parmesan cheese and additional salt + pepper if necessary.
Recipe: Green Beans With Pesto
From Garlic & Zest
1 pound green beanstrimmed
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons Basil pesto sauce
2 tablespoons sliced almonds
sprinkle shaved Parmesan
Toast The Almonds: Preheat the oven to 400°. Lay the almonds on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for 5-7 minutes until lightly browned and fragrant. (I start watching the almonds at the 5 minute point to make sure they don't burn).
For Warm Beans: Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil. Add the kosher salt and green beans. Cook the beans until they are crisp tender, about 3-5 minutes. Drain the beans well and add the pesto. Use tongs to toss the beans in the pesto until well coated. Transfer the beans to a serving bowl and sprinkle with toasted almonds and shaved parmesan.
For Chilled/Room Temperature Beans: Fill a large bowl with ice and water and set aside.
Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil. Add the kosher salt and green beans. Cook the beans until they are crisp tender, about 3-5 minutes. Use a spider or slotted spoon to transfer the beans to the ice water to shock them and stop the cooking. When the beans are cold, drain the water and pat them dry with paper towels.
Add the pesto to the beans. Use tongs to toss the beans in the pesto until well coated. Transfer the beans to a serving bowl and sprinkle with toasted almonds and shaved parmesan. Can be covered and kept refrigerated for a few hours until ready to serve.

Recipe: Spicy Green Beans
From Leanne Brown's Good & Cheap
Throw a fried egg on top, serve with rice, and you have a delicious meal. You can substitute the soy sauce and sambal oelek for a big tablespoon of Harissa if you prefer that flavor. Prepare as directed, just substituting sauces.
1 tsp vegetable oil
½ lb green beans, ends trimmed, chopped into bite-size pieces
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 tsp soy sauce
1 tsp sambal oelek or harissa (or 2 tsp chili flakes)
1 tsp ginger, grated (optional)
1 tsp lemon juice (optional)
Add the vegetable oil to a frying pan on medium heat. Once it’s hot, add the green beans. Let them cook undisturbed for about 1 minute. Mix the garlic, soy sauce, and sambal oelek in a bowl (and the ginger and lemon juice, if using). The beans should have turned bright green.
Add about ¼ cup of water to the pan. Cook another 2 minutes, until the water is mostly gone. Pour the sauce into the pan and toss gently to coat. Cook another 2 minutes, until everything is fragrant and most of the liquid is gone. Poke the beans with a fork: if it goes through easily, they’re done. They should take about 5 minutes. Taste and add more chili sauce or soy sauce if you want the beans hotter or saltier.
Recipe: Zucchini Fritters
From Damn Delicious
1 1/2 pounds zucchini, grated
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup grated Parmesan

1 large egg, beaten
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
Place grated zucchini in a colander over the sink. Add salt and gently toss to combine; let sit for 10 minutes. Using a clean dish towel or cheese cloth, drain zucchini completely.
In a large bowl, combine zucchini, flour, Parmesan, garlic and egg; season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Scoop tablespoons of batter for each fritter, flattening with a spatula, and cook until the underside is nicely golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side, about 1-2 minutes longer.
Serve immediately.
Recipe: Tzatziki
Adapted From Cookie & Kate
This creamy and refreshing sauce has so many uses! Try cutting beets into wedges, roasting, and serving with their own sautéed greens and a hearty dollop of Tzatziki!
1 cup grated cucumber (no need to peel or seed the cucumber first, grate on the large holes of your box grater)
1 ½ cups plain Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 medium clove garlic, pressed or minced
½ teaspoon fine sea salt
Working with one big handful at a time, lightly squeeze the grated cucumber between your palms over the sink to remove excess moisture. Transfer the squeezed cucumber to a serving bowl, and repeat with the remaining cucumber.
Add the yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and salt to the bowl, and stir to blend. Let the mixture rest for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Taste and add additional chopped fresh herbs, lemon juice, and/or salt, if necessary (I thought this batch was just right as-is).
Serve tzatziki immediately or chill for later. Leftover tzatziki keeps well, chilled, for about 4 days.
Recipe: Zuni Cafe Zucchini Pickles
Recipe & Pic from NYT Cooking
1 pound zucchini
1 small yellow onion
2 tablespoons salt, a little more if using kosher
2 cups cider vinegar
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons dry mustard
1 1/2 teaspoons crushed yellow and/or brown mustard seeds
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
Wash and trim the zucchini, then slice them lengthwise into 1/16-inch-thick slices on a mandoline. (You could slice them crosswise, too, but Zuni's are lengthwise.) Slice the onion very thinly as well. Combine the zucchini and onions in a large but shallow non-reactive bowl or casserole dish, add the salt, and toss to distribute. Add a few ice cubes and cold water to cover, then stir to dissolve the salt.
After about 1 hour, taste and feel a piece of zucchini—it should be slightly softened. Drain and pat dry.
Meanwhile, combine the vinegar, sugar, dry mustard, mustard seeds, and turmeric in a small saucepan and simmer for 3 minutes. Set aside until just warm to the touch. If the brine is too hot, it will cook the vegetables and make the pickles soft instead of crisp.
Transfer the zucchini and onion pieces to three two-cup canning vessels (or the equivalent) and pour over the cooled brine. Seal tightly and refrigerate for at least a day before serving to allow the flavors to mellow and permeate the zucchini. They'll last for a week in the fridge.
Recipe: Kale Quinoa Bites
from 101 Cookbooks
This recipe is very versatile- try adding in chopped broccoli, green onions, your favorite spice mix, etc!
unsalted butter
2 1/2 cups cooked quinoa, at room temperature
4 large eggs, beaten
scant 1/2 teaspoon fine grain sea salt
1 small onion, finely chopped
1/2 cup crumbled feta
1 clove garlic, minced
1 cup very finely chopped kale
1/2 cup shelled fava beans
3/4 cup breadcrumbs
Preheat oven to 375F, with a rack in the top third.
Butter mini-muffin tins generously, and line with a strip of parchment paper in each indent, this makes popping the bites out of the pan after either baking or freezing simple.
Combine the quinoa, eggs, and salt in a medium bowl. Stir in the onion, feta, garlic, kale, and edamame. Stir in most of the breadcrumbs, and let sit for a few minutes so the breadcrumbs can absorb some of the moisture. Fill the prepared muffin tins with the quinoa mixture, pressing the mixture down, and then sprinkling with the remaining breadcrumbs. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until baked through and deeply golden crusted.
Remove the quinoa bites from the pans after a few minutes. Enjoy either hot, or at room temperature
Recipe: Wok-Fried Ginger Scallion Carrots
from The Inquiring Chef
2 Tablespoons vegetable oil
2 medium carrots, cut into 2-inch matchsticks
1 large bunch of green onions, sliced
2 Tablespoons of ginger, finely minced

Heat the oil in a saucepan over high heat until the oil is shimmery and hot, but not smoking. Add the carrots and cook until tender and golden brown in spots, about 4 minutes.
Add the green onions, ginger, garlic and shallots at once and stir until hot and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the fish sauce, sesame seed oil, rice wine vinegar, soy sauce, honey, crushed red chile pepper and salt to taste. Cook until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the carrots, about 1 minute longer. Serve with rice or your other favorite grains.
Recipe: Ultimate Zucchini Bread
from Smitten Kitchen
As the recipe says, don't skimp on the turbinado sugar topping, it is key to creating a delectably crunchy top!
2 cups grated, packed zucchini, not wrung out, grated on the large holes of a box grater
2 large eggs
2/3 cup of a neutral oil (I use safflower), olive oil, or melted unsalted butter
1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon fine sea or table salt
1 1/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground or freshly grated nutmeg
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons raw or turbinado sugar
Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a 6-cup or 9×5-inch loaf pan with nonstick spray. Place grated zucchini in a large bowl and add oil, eggs, sugars, vanilla, and salt. Use a fork to mix until combined. Sprinkle cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, and baking powder over surface of batter and mix until combined — and then, for extra security that the ingredients are well-dispersed, give it 10 extra stirs. Add flour and mix until just combined. Pour into prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Sprinkle with the raw or turbinado sugar — don’t skimp. Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, until a toothpick or tester inserted into the middle cake but also into the top of the cake, closer to the dome, comes out batter-free.
Let cool completely in the pan. Leave in pan, unwrapped, overnight or 24 hours, until removing (carefully, so not to ruin flaky lid) and serving in slices. Zucchini bread keeps for 4 to 5 days at room temperature. I wrap only the cut end of the cake in foil, and return it to the baking pan, leaving the top exposed so that it stays crunchy.
Recipe: Fava Bean Hummus
Recipe & Pic from Elle Republic
If you're new to Favas and aren't sure how to prepare them, this is a great gateway recipe! All the familiar flavor of hummus with a delicious creamy texture. Serve with pita bread or use as a dip for sugar snap peas and carrot sticks!
1 lb fresh fava beans (broad beans in their pods), shelled
1 garlic cloves, minced
½ teaspoon ground cumin
pinch of sumac (optional)
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tsp tahini (well-stirred)
2 tsp cold water
handful fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped
sea salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil and drop the shelled fava beans in the water. Blanch for 2-3 minutes, until tender. Drain the beans, run them under cold water and transfer them into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Allow the beans to cool for several minutes, then drain and slip off their skins.
TIP: You can easily slip them out of their skin by making a small tear or incision at the top of the bean and squeezing gently. I find the best way to this is by working over a bowl.
Place beans, garlic, cumin, sumac, lemon juice, olive oil, tahini, water and parsley in a food processor (alternatively use an immersion blender). Pulse until smooth and combined. Or if preferred leave the texture slightly chunky. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Transfer to a serving bowl, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with a little more sumac.
Serve with toasted pita bread and enjoy!
Recipe: Chard Saag
From Genius Kitchen
The Saag that you see on the menu in Indian restaurants is typically made with spinach, but chard is an excellent substitute! If you enjoy your saag a bit more on the rich and decadent side, adding a splash of cream does just the trick.
1bunch chard, cleaned, stems removed
8 tablespoons vegetable oil or 8 tablespoons ghee (clarified butter)
2 medium onions, minced
2 tablespoons vindaloo curry paste
1⁄2 cup water
2vgarlic cloves, minced
2 inches ginger, minced
Finely chop chard leaves and set aside.
Heat oil or ghee in heavy bottomed saute pan at med-high. When oil is hot, add onion (be careful, as the oil may splatter) and sauté until transparent. Add chopped chard and let wilt. Add vindaloo and reduce heat.
Simmer covered, stirring occasionally, for 10-20 minutes or until desired consistency is reached. If you find the mixture is getting dry, add water.
After simmering, raise heat and add garlic and ginger. Stir and heat for 5 minutes.
Serve with Naan bread and/or basamati rice.
(NOTE: If you want to add paneer or potatoes, etc, fold them into the mixture along with garlic and ginger).
Recipe: Za'atar Roasted Cauliflower Bowls With Sumac Tahini
From Dishing Up The Dirt
This is one of Rae's favorite ways of eating Cauliflower. She subs in cilantro for the parsley and adds a few crumbles of salty feta cheese to kick the flavor up even more.
Veggie Bowl
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 large head of cauliflower, broken into florets
2 1/2 tablespoons za'atar
2 cups cooked green lentils
2 cups cooked quinoa
1/4 cup almonds
1/2 cup minced parsley
Sumac Tahini Sauce
1/4 cup tahini
1 clove of garlic, minced
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon sumac
pinch of salt
1/2 cup water
Preheat the oven to 425F. Toss the cauliflower with the olive oil and za'atar and place in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast in the oven until the cauliflower is tender and browned on all sides, about 30 minutes. Toss the cauliflower halfway through cooking.
Divide the lentils and quinoa between four bowls and set aside.
In a small dry skillet toast the almonds until golden brown and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Shake the pan a few times while toasting. Remove from the heat and when cool enough to handle roughly chop.
Prepare the sauce by whisking together all the ingredients until smooth and creamy. This works best with an immersion blender or small food processor. Taste test and adjust seasonings as needed. If the sauce is too thick add a touch more water to thin.
Divide the cauliflower between the prepped veggie bowls and drizzle with the sauce. Sprinkle with the toasted almonds and minced parsley and serve warm or at room temperature.

Recipe: Kohlrabi Fritters With Cashew Cream Sauce
One of our favorite ways to use kohlrabi, from Dishing Up The Dirt!
Sauce
1 cup raw cashews (soaked in warm water for 30 minutes)
2 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves of garlic, minced
2 1/2 tablespoons minced dill
2 1/2 tablespoons minced parsley
salt and pepper to taste
Fritters
1 pound kohlrabi (about 1 large or 2 medium sized kohlrabies) peeled
1 medium-sized potato, peeled
1 small yellow onion, diced
1 1/2 tablespoons minced dill
1 1/2 tablespoons minced parsley
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/3 cup grapeseed oil (or another high heat oil)
Drain the soaked cashews and rinse them under cold water. Place them in a high speed blender with 1/2 cup water, lemon juice, oil, garlic, dill and parsley. Whirl away on the highest speed until smooth and creamy. Scrap down the sides as needed and add more water, a little at a time until you reach your desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper.
Preheat the oven to 250F. Using the large holes on a box grater, grate the kohlrabi and potato. Alternately, you can use the grating attachment on a food processor. Transfer the grated veggies to a dish towel and wring out any moisture. Place the veggies into a large bowl.
Add the onion, dill, parsley, salt and flour to the veggies. Stir in the eggs and mix until everything is well incorporated.
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Spoon 1/4 cup of the mixture into the skillet and flatten it gently with a spatula. Add 2-3 more fritters to the pan and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side or until golden brown and crisp. Transfer the batch to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven until you finish the rest of the fritters.
Serve with the sauce and enjoy.
