Oven-Roasted Summer Veggies

This is my version of a rustic Italian dish from The Italian Country Table, by Lynne Rosetto Kasper. It is more of a technique than a specific recipe — use whatever vegetables look best at your farmer’s market. I ommit the eggplant and the results are still delicious. 1 small eggplant, cut into 1-inch cubes 1 large or [...]

Chickpea-Rice Veggie Burgers

These veggie burgers freeze and re-heat well. They are mild-tasting enough to go with just about anything you’d like to top them with — from the traditional ketchup and mustard to my favorite, salsa verde. They leave sandwiches behind and enter the realm of dinner-you-would-serve-to-guests when topped with Oven – Roasted Red Peppers, and served [...]
Baked Spanish Rice

Ah, Spanish rice. A dish that evokes church potlucks of my childhood. One of my favorite church games (along with counting the number of times the minister said “uh” or “um” during the sermon) was trying to guess the number of Spanish rice casseroles that would be laid out side by side, each in its [...]

I used these wonderful round summer squashes that I found at my farmer’s market for this recipe, but regular long zucchini will work just as well. 3 cups cooked basmati rice (I used white, but you could also use brown) 6 zucchini or summer squash 3 small carrots, diced 4 cloves garlic 1 teaspoon oregano 1/2 [...]
Spookily Pumpkin Muffins

Getting kids to eat veggies is all about marketing, especially when you have a picky food-allergic child. For those of you not in the know, Spookily is a square pumpkin that stars in his own cartoon show aimed at the under-five crowd. (What is it about square things and kid’s cartoons?) My daughter has never [...]
