Apple-cranberry chutney simmers Rome apples with tart cranberries, golden raisins, orange zest, and warm spices, then gets pulsed in the food processor for a chunky-smooth holiday condiment.

This simple recipe actually turned out very tasty, which definitely amazed me, especially with only these a few ingredients. The cumin, fennel and sesame seeds gave the dish load of yumminess. A great summer side dish.

Mexican rice with sure-fire recipe for perfectly cooked fluffy rice perfect for Cinco de Mayo or as a side to numerous Mexican mains.

With its vibrant color and flavor, yellow rice is a staple in Latin America and the Caribbean. In Cuba, it's traditionally garnished with pimentos, but I sometimes top it with sliced scallions. Serve it with Cuban-style roast pork, ropa vieja or as a side to grilled meats, poultry or seafood.

This much quicker and easier to prepare version of the classic Eggs Benedict. Reduced fat but equally as decadent as the original. This is a variation of a vegetarian version of the same recipe, see links below.

This quick and easy salad is made with fresh arugula, sliced strawberries, and tossed with olive oil and balsamic vinaigrette, then sprinkled with freshly shaved Parmesan cheese and toasted walnuts right before serving.

Baked seasoned warm goat cheese adds a nice zing into the salad, fresh arugula and radicchio have the slightly peppery taste, perfectly match the olive vinaigrette and creamy goat cheese.

Great salad, looks elegant but is reasonably easy to put together. Loved the combination of textures, crunchy croutons, slightly spicy rocket (arugula) and perfectly dressed with just a bit of tang from the dressing.

Arugula (Rocket) or Baby Spinach tossed with a flavorful warm mushroom and onion dressing. A perfect balancing of fresh clean flavor with a warm woodsy note from the mushrooms.

Also made this arugula salad. Sliced crunchy fennel, sweet orange segments, and black olives are gently tossed with olive oil, honey, and lemon juice. Refreshingly tasty.

Arugula potato leek soup gets transformed by 4 cups of peppery arugula and a splash of Pernod. A versatile blender soup served hot or chilled, finished with yogurt and fresh greens.

Found this recipe on heatherchristo's blog. It looks beautiful and sounds delicious, I have all the ingredients on hand, and will have to give it a try very soon.

Beet greens are sauteed with ginger, garlic, scallions and tossed with soy sauce, chili bean sauce, sesame oil, and sesame seeds. A tasty and light stir-fry that can be served as a side dish or with some rice, or a few slices of bread to become a light meal.

Creamy, spicy, slightly sweet and sour peanut sauce makes this scrumptious Asian-style cabbage salad. The salad can be made one day in advance, simply wrap it up and refrigerate overnight. Next day it will be even more delicious.

Fresh vegetables, seasoned with garlic, salt, sesame oil, olive oil and a touch of freshly squeezed lemon juice. Refreshing and crunchy!
