Bean Gratin by John Spottiswood

This delicious and healthy recipe can be made with any variety of white bean, dried or canned. I used dried cannellini beans. Great Northern beans or other white beans will work too.

Shaved Brussels Sprout and Farro Salad by John Spottiswood

This recipe is adapted from one by Susan Spungen. I thought it was phenomenal. If you can't find Farro, you coud substitute brown rice or pearl barley, but get Farro if you can. It's wonderful. You might consider serving this as a side for Thanksgiving. It would make a great addition.

Hot Feta and Artichoke Dip by misty

One of my favorite recipes, which I've tweaked to my own preferences. For instance, the original recipe calls for pimentos, but I find them redundent as they add nothing to the flavor and little to the appearence.
