This zucchini cake is my son's favorite cake — it stays very moist and also freezes well. I usually frost it with cream cheese frosting, but it's also great plain.

Winter Green Salad
People tend to forget to eat green salads and other raw foods in the cold winter weather. This salad is a good way to get your greens by combining somewhat heartier salad textures. I find that this salad is filling enough to be the main course, with a bit of bread or some rice cakes on the side. It will also work as an appetizer in a smaller serving.
Real Chiles Rellenos
Chiles rellenos made with poblano peppers — just like the ones at your favorite Mexican restaurant! The unique, flavorful sauce and light, crispy batter are worth the effort and time it takes to prepare this cheesy classic at home. The steps are easy! Stuff and freeze the peppers in advance to save time.
