Dinner

Ratatouille Soup with Eggplant and Zucchini

Ratatouille soup makes six servings. I make it ahead of time for meals I want to serve as a side dish with other foods at different times. Eggplant and zucchini in the soup become tender in the tomato broth. A short blending period near the end of cooking adds pieces of vegetables to the soup (my favorite feature of this soup).

Side Dishes

Cheesy Winter Vegetable Casserole with Cheddar and Gruyère

Select broccoli as well as cauliflower that exhibit firm, tight florets, together with carrots that create a hard and heavy sensation due to their size, since they preserve their shape beneath the cheese sauce. The carrots bring a little sweetness, while the broccoli stays firm in the middle after its brief time in steam.

Lunch

Sweet Potato and Red Lentil Patties with Cilantro and Smoked Paprika

Medium sweet potatoes give these sweet potato and red lentil patties a soft center and mild sweetness, while pan-frying creates the outside crisp and browned. I create those when I want to prepare a vegetable-based main dish that still feels quite substantial. Smoked paprika adds to the mixture a warm edge, while I particularly like it with the sweet potato.

Baby yellow and red potatoes with papery skins work best for this baked garlic butter potato recipe because the skins brown and the potato flesh softens. Melted garlic and butter are spooned over the potatoes after baking, and chopped parsley is garnished on top. I like the little green bits.
