Brown Rice Bowl with Vegetables and Salmon
“I made this last week and it was such a hit with our two teens that it's in rotation again this week!” - Danielle G., digital member.
Farro Bowl with Vegetables and Sausage
Cooking farro like pasta is a hands-off method that allows us to focus on preparing the other elements of this hearty lunch or dinner bowl.
Roasted Okra
Roasting okra creates deep nuttiness and lightly crisp edges. And if the vegetable’s viscous qualities aren’t your cup of tea, dry heat dehydrates the okra’s mucilage, so it becomes nearly undetectable.
Skillet-Roasted Broccoli
We make sure to cut the broccoli crowns into wedges with flat sides for maximum contact with the hot skillet to get thorough browning.
Seared Radicchio Wedge Salad
“The salad was absolutely delicious. The variety of texture and mix between sweet and bitter–company worthy side!” -Mariah G.

Briam, which hails from Greece, is an incredibly simple but dynamic dish of vegetables bathed in olive oil and baked until caramelized but still moist and tender.
Panzanella with Garlic and Capers
We start our panzanella by salting the tomatoes and letting them drain in a colander. Then, we use that juice in the dressing to add a boost of fresh flavor.
Roasted Fennel with Spiced Cashews
We toss fennel wedges with salted water before roasting them covered, which provides moisture for steaming and helps get seasoning between their layers. We then roast them uncovered to turn golden and deliciously caramelized.
