This recipe is a take on the ubiquitous Lebanese Shawarma; except that here, fish is used and it is grilled quickly (or pan-fried) after marinating in olive oil and spices.

In this version, the filling is lean, meat-free, and saturated fat-free, but loaded with the taste and texture we have come to adore, and the nutrients we need.

Chipotle chiles in adobo lend a nice smoky overtone to this meatless meal, while toasted pepitas folded into the filling give it an unexpected crunch.

It's a new twist on the turkey burger. Use lean ground turkey and add chipotle flavored hot sauce to make it spicy and hot! Great for indoor or outdoor grilling.

A burger lover will never miss the beef in this version. The vegetables keep the meat moist, so feel free to use a low fat feta cheese. If salt is your issue, reduce the amount of olives and use a low sodium feta.

Sometimes turkey burgers lack the "oomph" of beef. In this recipe Jennifer Chandler adds some mustard, and spicy seasonings to the patty and creates a spicy remoulade sauce to give it even more kick.

High Tunnel farming caught my eye because its extended growing season adds to the amount of local produce we get. While farm manager Aviva Asher was tidying up the winter crop to make way for spring, I discovered another benefit of local growing: use what you’ve got.
