Kimchi-Style Sautéed Cabbage
A nice alternative to its fermented cousin; put this on pork chops or fish.

Lamb Stir-Fry with Pomegranate and Yogurt
Affordable leg of lamb is a great way to break out of the usual beef-chicken-pork rut, especially when used in a quick-cooking but complex-tasting dish like this.

Green Mango Salad
Done well, this should be crunchy, fresh, spicy, sour, and a little bit funky. Taste as you go and adjust as needed.

Roasted Shrimp with Chile Gremolata
We like to serve this main with couscous, rice, or grilled bread to sop up all of the shrimp's intensely flavored cooking liquid.

Spicy Honey-Glazed Parsnips
Some parsnips can have a woody core, which you'll want to cut away before cooking.

Cabbage and Asian Pear Slaw
This hits all the notes of a great slaw: creamy, tangy, and crunchy.

Freekeh Salad with Chicken and Kale
If you can't find freekeh, use another whole grain, like spelt or rye berries.
Taco Rice
Why have plain white rice when you can have taco rice instead? Taco rice slices, it dices, it juliennes... okay, maybe not, but it does have many different uses. Eat it as a side dish, stuff it into a burrito, use it as a base for a bean-and-rice bowl, or use it as a base for a casserole, like in my Southwest Veggie & Rice Casserole . Taco rice doesn't take much more time than cooking regular white rice, but has so much more to brag about.
