All About "vegetarian" and "healthy"
Edamame Lo Mein
This is not the greasy Lo Mein of your favorite Chinese take-out, it tastes even better. Plus you get plenty of nutrients with the addition of edamame, a great vegetarian protein source.
Read MoreFlorentine Ravioli
The flavors of Italy are best expressed in simplicity: a dash of spices, a little oil and dinner's on the table in minutes—especially if you use frozen spinach and frozen ravioli or tortellini.
Read MoreTortellini & Zucchini Soup
Everyone knows tortellini make a quick weeknight pasta dinner - but they also add substance that turns this quick vegetable soup into a meal. One caveat: Read the label carefully; avoid pasta products made with hydrogenated oils...
Read MoreSeared Steak Salad with Edamame & Cilantro
Look for prewashed packages of Asian-style salad mixes at your supermarket - their peppery, exotic character is great with this full-flavored steak and dressing. Look for fiber- and protein-rich edamame (green soybeans) in the...
Read MoreFettuccine Alfredo
Alfredo di Lello, the Roman restaurateur who created his signature sauce in the 1920s, might be startled to find this streamlined version that still tastes rich enough to satisfy those deep creamy-pasta cravings. The addition of...
Read MoreBeet Walnut Dip
Dipping can be a great way to introduce your kids to a food they are suspicious of. Partly it's because everything tastes good on a chip, and partly it's because dips are usually seductively salty and tangy and flavorful. This beet dip is stunningly beautiful and so rich and tangy and wonderful that I will eat and eat it until it is gone. The sherry vinegar is my favorite vinegar to liven up the flavor of anything with roots or nuts, and the beet dip has both; the vinegar is earthy and nutty itself -- just lovely -- and a little goes a long way.
Read MoreRoasted Cherry Tomatoes
While the quality of regular tomatoes suffers in the off season, cherry tomatoes can be a delicious way to get your fix all winter long. Baking them at high heat transforms them into a succulent and flavorful accompaniment to your favorite roast chicken or beef. You could also try stirring them into freshly cooked pasta or spooning them over toasted country bread.
Read MoreBroccolini with Lemon and Garlic
Broccolini's long, tender stalks are completely edible and their mild-tasting loose florets and occasional yellow flowers are wonderfully delicious. I like to serve it simply, tossed in a bit of olive oil with a squeeze of lemon juice, so that its fresh flavor shines through.
Read MoreBaked Sweet Potatoes with Cinnamon Butter
Sweet potatoes don't require marshmallows to make them palatable. Here's a simple way to enjoy their rich flavor.
Read MoreSoy-Glazed Tofu
Ah, tofu. We eat a lot of it. It's inexpensive, it's incredibly good for you, our kids love it, and you can treat it like a blank canvas. The trick is to use tofu's mild sponginess to your own advantage, preferably by impelling it to soak up a lot of salt and butter. Hence the following, which is our current go-to recipe, and we eat it at least once a week. Allowed to brown in a pan with soy sauce and lemon juice, the tofu gets crispy-edged and tangily addictive. Just be sure to buy extra-firm tofu, since any other style will fall all to pieces in the pan -- especially "silken tofu" which has the texture of jellied library paste.
