Rich Sauce with White Eggplant & Herbs by Amos MillerEggplant has nothing to do with eggs - unless you dip and bread them. This sauce is a knockout! We grow 'Casper', an heirloom small, long white eggplant. It's mild in flavor and perfectly suited to thick, rich vegetable sauces. When cut into dime-to-quarter-sized disks, I have found Casper to be a perfect addition to other late… |

I developed the following recipe to assure that I would seldom have to carry home any… |

On these hot summer days, you may not want to fire up the broiler, but this salad is so easy to bring together that when the coals are ready on the grill, just lay the unhusked ears of sweet corn over the… |

Veggie Burgers Inside Out by John SpottiswoodThis is a really amazing veggie burger recipe I adapted from a recipe in Super Natural Cooking. I am a burger fanatic, and I've never found a veggie burger that I think can stand up to a great hamburger. This recipe comes the closest...primarily because it doesn't sandwich a carb loaded veggie patty between two carb loaded buns. It… |

Parmigiana di melanzane (Eggplant Parmesan) by Frank FarielloBeing a lover of good food, I find it almost impossible to answer the question 'what's your favorite dish?' But if I had to, my answer would probably be eggplant parmesan--parmigiana di melanzane--the way Angelina used to make it. This is a simple dish to make, but it involves several steps. Allow yourself a good two hours to… |

Garbage Salad (not really) by Amos MillerThis salad will make the meal, or be the meal. Broccoli, oranges, almonds, raisins, mushrooms, onion & bacon - and a fabulous classic sweet & tangy creamy dressing! Vegetarians can substitute bac-o-bits, or not add a bacon substitute. Throwing together bits and pieces of a variety of items has long been the basis of some great… |

Cucumber & Tomato Condiment by Amos MillerThis is a very finely-minced salad-condiment commonly found in the northern mountains of Morocco. It is eaten with roast meats and substantial meat dishes. Most Moroccan salads benefit from a bit of quiet time so the flavors can integrate and the aromas build. This is very tasty as a topping for hamburgers, and can even be a dip,… |
