Make-Ahead Salami Sub With White Bean Spread and Kale-Slaw Recipe

The key to a make-ahead sub is choosing toppings that won't wilt or dry out, and to choose a bread that won't quickly turn stale or soggy. This sandwich iteration of the classic beans 'n' greens pairing fits all the criteria, and takes less than 20 minutes to throw together. → Read More

Make-Ahead Spring Vegetable Soup with Pesto Recipe

If your office is anything like mine, which is to say, offensively freezing given the calendar date, then you likely share my affinity for soup in warm weather.

Make-Ahead Spaghetti With Arugula Jalapeño Pesto and Zucchini Recipe

There are few sights more welcoming after a day in the sun than a tangle of cold noodles slicked with pesto, waiting to be eaten straight from the container. I recreated the pesto wheel here with arugula, Parmesan, walnuts and, stick with me, jalapeño. → Read More

Make-Ahead Curried Coconut Quinoa with Shrimp and Basil Recipe

Somewhere between saucy and soupy, this dish is just shy of a full-blown curry. Quinoa, mushrooms and shrimp are cooked in coconut milk and curry powder so they're infused with flavor--and then finished with fresh basil. Adding coconut milk makes the quinoa extra brothy, so it won't dry out when you reheat it the next day. → Read More

Make-Ahead Mustardy Quinoa With Sausage, Potato, and Tarragon Recipe

This week's lunchbox was borne out of a desire to make and eat my favorite potato salad for lunch, followed by the begrudging conclusion that just potato salad does not a responsible lunch make. So I added some things—handfuls of arugula and a base of black quinoa—to turn a side dish craving into a full-fledged meal. → Read More

Make-Ahead Turmeric Mushroom Stir-Fry with Herbs and Vermicelli Recipe

Inspired by cha ca la vong, a flavorful Vietnamese stir-fry, these mushrooms take on warm notes from turmeric, acidity from vinegar and lime, and sweet freshness from scallions and heaps of dill. → Read More

Make-Ahead Detox Turkey Soup

After hors d'oeuvres, appetizers, first, seconds, thirds, probably a midnight snack, and leftover pie for breakfast, chances are you may be craving some clean eating after Thanksgiving. This soup creates a lot of flavor in a short period of time, using ingredients most likely already purchased for the holiday. → Read More

Make-Ahead Pea Soup With Shallot, Lemon, and Parmesan Recipe

Not to be confused with the thick-as-fog, sits-in-your-stomach-like-a-brick winter-time version, this pea soup is subtle and light, fragrant with lemon and mint. The soup is only simmered long enough to cook through the peas and let the flavors come together; a handful of Parmesan at the end adds salt and a touch of creaminess. → Read More

Lunch Box: Make-Ahead Chimichurri Shrimp and Corn Salad

I slather chimichurri on anything edible all year round, but corn is the perfect slatheree in the summer. Swathed in the bright, herbal sauce, sweet corn, fennel, roasted peppers, and shrimp are gently elevated, without being overwhelmed. \n → Read More
