Samosas
These stuffed savory pastries are a traditional Indian favorite. Sweet potatoes, cauliflower and spices are cooked together to create a mouthwatering filling for the easy whole-wheat phyllo dough.
Peas
Squash, Spinach & Chickpea Curry with Turmeric Blend
This super-simple curry gets volumes of flavor – and an anti-inflammatory punch – from a DIY curry blend that starts with turmeric.
Roasted Garlic, Turnip & Parmesan Pasta
Roasting garlic is an easy way to add intense flavor to your meals. Here, we blend it with tender, sweet turnip and a touch of Parmesan to make a surprisingly creamy sauce – without any cream.
Skillet Soba Noodle Soup
This hearty skillet soup is brimming with colorful vegetables and fiber-rich soba noodles. For a spicy kick, add a drizzle of your favorite Asian-style hot sauce before digging in.
Spinach Pea Soup with Shaved Asparagus
While this soup may seem virtuous with a trifecta of healthful green vegetables, including green peas, baby spinach and asparagus, it tastes anything but. Fragrant herbs and green onions add zing, and a dollop of crème fraîche adds a touch of indulgence to the soup.

Indian Coconut Chicken Curry with Spinach & Quinoa
For this recipe, we love the flavor of vadouvan, a mild French-style curry powder that usually contains shallots and garlic. To save cook time, serve over quinoa instead of rice.
Chicken and Sweet Pea Linguine with Mascarpone Cream Sauce
Mascarpone, an Italian-style cream cheese, features an extra-creamy texture and mild buttery taste perfect for pastas.
Seven-Layer Salad with Blue Cheese Dressing
This recipe yields a generous amount of dressing – either toss the desired amount of dressing to coat the salad lightly right before serving, or serve the dressing alongside so your guests can dress it themselves. Or, you can go the route that many traditionalists take in the Midwest – they pour on enough dressing to lightly coat the salad (we suggest using about half of the dressing) and set it in the fridge to allow the dressing to trickle down and coat the veggies.
Spiced Beef Stew with Parsnips & Beets
Aromatic garam masala and pungent ginger infuse this warming stew. Try serving with whole-wheat naan or baguette.
Sweet Pea Ricotta Spread
Rich ricotta cheese is the perfect accompaniment to sweet peas in this vibrant spread. Try it over garlic and olive oil crostini as an appetizer or with simple whole-grain crackers.

This quintessential spring pasta, brimming with fresh seasonal herbs such as mint, parsley and tarragon, works hot, cold or at room temperature as a side dish or entrée.
Chicken Pot Pie with Chive Biscuits
Rich and satisfying old-fashioned chicken pot pie filling is topped with quick homemade biscuits in this family favorite.
Paella
Paella is composed of rice, meat and vegetables. In Valencia, where it's said to have originated, paellas are almost always single-protein dishes. Here in America, however, we like to mix fish, chicken and pork. Throw in some vegetables and you have a complete good-for-you one-dish meal.
