Read MoreGreens, Goat Cheese and Lemon Ravioli
/
To me, this dish is simple perfection and highlights the beautiful bounty of local farmers markets and eating seasonably from them. I had a huge mess of just-picked mixed baby greens -two kinds of kale, mustard- and some fresh, young goat cheese- wouldn't a combo of those make a lovely stuffing for fresh ravioli? Yes!
I always like whole wheat with greens so incorporated some whole wheat pastry flour into the pasta dough. As well, since spring is on the horizon, I added lemon zest to the ravioli filling and made a lemon-butter sauce to top it all off.

I didn't have limes so adapted Amanda Hesser's recipe for Beets in Lime Cream to Beets in Clementine Cream. I'm sure the limes would be fabulous, but so were the clementines!

Read MoreCorn Cakes with Citrus Greens

Another delicious, vegetarian recipe from Yotam Ottolenghi. This is really delicious. If you wanted to move away from this being vegetarian, adding diced, cooked bacon to the cakes would be super. Also, I bet you could use orange juice in place of the lemon for a different flavor profile.
