The secret to this hearty vegetarian chili is butternut squash. It holds its shape and adds a layer of flavor and sweetness.

This recipe is really easy; it's really more of a process than a recipe. Rice paper wrappers, which are available in the ethnic sections of most larger supermarkets these days, are a great way to wrap your veggies and protein for a quick snack or light lunch.

Puttanesca is one of my favorite Italian sauces. This version turns ordinary dried brown lentils into real comfort food.

Vindaloo is one of my favorite dishes in the world! This spicy Indian curry can be made vegetarian or with meat and is packed with spices. For those new to Indian cooking, I simplified the spice list, choosing five you might already have on hand.

This is a modified version of a recipe in my favorite vegan cookbook (La Dolce Vegan!) I'm not a big fan of the taste of kale by itself, but since it is so nutritious I did some experimenting, and found that it is delicious when minced in a tofu loaf =)

Feel free to add or substitute ingredients with what you prefer or have on hand. This is so simple and delicious, you must try it!

A delicious Indian recipe- subtly spicy, with tons of flavor, and vegetarian to boot. This recipe isn't quite quick, but it doesn't take forever, either, and it's a one-pot meal. If you're watching your sodium, choose canned tomatoes that don't have added salt. Adapted from Orangette's recipe here: http://orangette.blogspot.com/2006/02/public-display-of-chickpeas.html

A word of warning- don't skimp on the olive oil. I know it's tempting, but it's a healthy fat and it's absolutely necessary to prevent sticking and to get the correct flavor in the first steps of the recipe.

Cabbage is a good source of Vitamins A & c, and fiber. It helps to prevent cancer and is low in calories. Cabbage tastes best and is most nutritious when eaten raw or cooked for a short period of time in a small amount of water.
