I've long relied on soups as a way to cram as many vegetables as I can into my family's diet, but the truth is, my daughter prefers to eat her leafy greens mixed into one of her two favorite foods:
Mixed greens with roasted butternut squash, apples, dried cranberries, pepitas, feta cheese, and maple mustard dressing. This salad is perfect for Thanksgiving.
I inherited a CSA box packed with greens the other night, inspiring this simple one-pot winter pasta with a sauce made from a full bunch of kale, shallots, garlic, and goat cheese.
This Slow-Cooker Vegetarian Chili With Sweet Potatoes recipe contains can black beans, kidney beans, sweet potato, fire-roasted diced tomatoes, red onion and more.
My mother's signature Spanish rice recipe, a delicious accompaniment to steak, chicken, and Mexican entrees such as tacos or enchiladas. Spanish rice is browned first with onions and garlic, then cooked in chicken stock with added tomato.
In his excellent version of the traditional Chilean stew porotos granados , chef Alex Aguilera uses kidney beans in place of the customary cranberry beans, then folds in fresh basil and a swirl of paprika oil. Click here to visit the new home of KitchenDaily!
Not a traditional hotpot recipe, instead...a fast-cooking bulgur cooks in a light orange-juice accented broth. Plenty of chickpeas, tiny cauliflower pieces, onions, and greens add texture and substance to the hearty pot.
Chinese cooks typically stir-fry shrimp in their shells for a more flavorful dish. You can do the same, but we recommend first removing the tiny legs. While rice may seem like the logical side, braised greens, such as chard or spinach, are actually just as traditional. Click here to visit the new home of KitchenDaily!
Crisp on the outside and creamy on the inside, these salsa-topped cakes make a lovely vegetarian entree. They offer a great way to use leftover basmati rice; if you're starting with cooked rice, use about 1 1/2 cups. Add mixed greens to the plate for even more color.
