Roasted Delicata Squash with Chilies, Lime & Cilantro

This farro salad, when surrounded by all the elements of the Zuni salad — sweet onions, crunchy nuts, spicy greens, a simple olive oil and vinegar dressing — soaks up so much goodness all the while maintaining its chewy texture and nutty flavor. // alexandracooks.com

Farro Salad with Toasted Pine Nuts, Currants & Mustard Greens

This farro salad, a combination of roasted corn, fresh-squeezed lime juice, cilantro, minced chili peppers and diced peppers and onions, has become a weekly staple. If you strategize by chopping the vegetables and herbs while the corn is roasting and the farro is simmering, this salad can come together in just about 20 minutes. It yields a lot, thanks to all of the add-ins, and tastes better with each passing day. // alexandracooks.com

Soba Salad with Marinated Tofu, Mint & Scallions

In this eggplant caviar, eggplant is roasted (as opposed to fried), which requires minimal oil, allowing the eggplant's sweet flavor to really shine. And after a gentle mashing with a fork, the eggplant's flesh becomes creamy, a perfect consistency to whip into a spread to spoon over grilled bread. // alexandracooks.com
