Great list! But the photos for dishes 2 & 3 should be reversed.
Oops! You're right. Thanks! We'll fix.
Great list! These Ottolenghi sweet potato cakes are pretty simple to whip up and make a tasty and hearty side, too (sans the poached egg): http://chocolateandchard.blogspot.co.uk/2013/02/sweet-potato-cakes-with-poached-egg-and.html
Sometimes the sides are what I'm most excited about! this winter we've been enjoying a millet, fennel, kale, blood orange salad (http://kaleeats.blogspot.ca/2013/02/fennel-blood-orange-pistachio-kale-salad.html). it makes spring feel not so far off.
Of the ones above, I'm excited to try the brown rice walnut cherry one. sounds interesting!
Man, this popped up in my RSS feed when I decided to to make the vegetarian beer chili you guys posted a while ago. Thanks for the cornbread reminder! It made a fantastic combination.
