Notes about Recipes in this book

• Beet and napa cabbage salad with goat cheese

  • Hana.Sundet on January 31, 2022

    The flavors and colors came together so nicely, using a blood orange in the orange vinaigrette! I did add more rice vinegar when I tasted for adjustment. The chèvre cheese I used had a softer texture, so I just spooned it over instead of crumbling. Definitely will keep this one in mind as a great winter salad!

• Crunchy dilled coleslaw

  • Laurendmck on August 13, 2016

    We are always looking for cole slaws that don't call for sugar. This one is great, with pickles and pickle juice. The sunflower seeds lend a welcome crunch.

• Lentil vegetable soup

  • Gio on January 18, 2014

    Lentil Vegetable Soup, Pg. 96. Hearty, stick-to-the-ribs soup. Instead of celery root I used 2 large celery stalks. Loved this soup.

• Tuscan white bean and kale soup

  • Gio on January 18, 2014

    Tuscan White Bean and Kale Soup, Pg. 109. Full of flavor but a little lighter than most winter soups. Delicious!

• Miso noodle soup

  • Laurendmck on March 13, 2018

    We really liked this. I doubled the recipe. If you do that, no need to double the udon. Added a little salt and sriracha and it was perfect. A healthy warming vegan dish for winter.

• Spaghetti squash chowder

  • Hana.Sundet on October 04, 2024

    I like the flavors & the creative use of spaghetti squash, but this preparation seems too lengthy in cooking and too fussy with the blending. Next time I make something like this, I plan to adapt the same flavors into the style of a simpler chowder from Sidney W. Dean's Cooking American.

• Spicy turnip stir-fry

  • rpepper on November 11, 2018

    This was really good--an alternative to roasted turnips.

• Southern style rice with collard greens

  • Gio on January 18, 2014

    Pg. 220. 12/27/13

• Kale pizza

  • Christine on September 30, 2014

    Made this to use up some kale from our CSA box -- I didn't have very high expectations, but it turned out surprisingly well! I used my go-to pizza dough recipe in place of the one outlined specifically for this recipe.

• Mediterranean fish on a bed of rice and leeks

  • Gio on January 18, 2014

    Pg. 276. Basmati, cod loin, Kalamata.

    P. 321

• Five-spice pork and cabbage-stir fry

  • Gio on January 18, 2014

    Pg. 336. Used leftover roasted fresh ham, toasted sesame oil. Substituted Bourbon for Chinese rice wine.
