There’s a brief period between summer and fall where it seems that just about every fruit and vegetable is available in abundance at the farmers’ market. This Braised Harissa Eggplant and Greens by Sheela Prakash celebrates the seasonal overlap when tomatoes are still ruby red, deep purple orbs of eggplant are taut and smooth, and dark, leafy greens arrive in bunches. It’s just the thing to make when the weather starts to turn and your craving for cool, crisp salads is replaced by warmer, spicier things. If you’re the type that likes to squirrel away good things to uncover in the depths of winter, this is a wise one to double batch and freeze so you can reach for it when nothing but potatoes and onions seem to prevail.

This Greek Hearty and Creamy Agvolemono soup by Maria Koutsogiannis is so delicious made vegan! It is creamy, packed with veggies, and so warming! The flavors in this soup are simply perfect. The lemon really ties everything together and allows more room for spicy heat from black pepper – an absolute must in this dish. The creaminess of the rice and miso really marries the soup while the miso and nutritional yeast add a certain earthiness and warning effect. All in all, this soup is well balanced, filled with flavor, and really easy to whip up when you’re in a pinch!
