In the spirit of the Christian celebration of Lent, which begins today, Ash Wednesday, try out this easy and flavorful meat-free dish. The whole thing is done in about half an hour and its textures - doughy, buttery, crunchy, clean and green - make a great dinner combo. No pine nuts? No worries. Go for chopped and toasted walnuts instead. No spinach? No problem. See if you can get your hands on some winter greens with small leaves or chop up some broccoli. Serve it up with some stinky hard cheese, like provolone or asiago, and enjoy. Read the whole recipe on OregonLive.com.

Maryland Crab Cake Sliders
You don't need to spend a bunch of cash at the ballpark to get some mighty fine crab cake sliders. You can make them at home and watch the game on TV for just a fraction of the cost. They're easy to make and, in this baked version by Frances Hughes Glendening, not bad for you. If you can't get your hands on fresh lump crab meat, which, admittedly, costs a small fortune, then the imitation stuff, which is made from pressed white fish, is a decent stand-in. Shape the sliders to be about the diameter of a Ritz cracker. They're great atop fresh baby greens with a strong taste, such as arugula or spinach, and alongside a melange of fresh chopped tropical fruits, such as mangoes, pineapples and papayas.

Broccoli Pesto Spaghetti
All this talk of gardening today gave us at CT a hankering for the pesto. But, alas, with no basil in season here in Connecticut and our stash of frozen pesto from last summer dwindling we were forced to search for other alternatives - and viola - we found this interesting alternative from Good Housekeeping. We suggest tossing in another clove of garlic and a bit of the dried basil to give the pesto a deeper level of flavor. Read the whole recipe here in Good Housekeeping.
