sunday morning breakfast links, 1/3/10

Saturday night was girls' night out so I'm behind on my typing--I'll be brief. A few links from Apartment Therapy/The Kitchn's year-end roundup that caught my eye:

• 25 Vegetarian and Vegan Meals: I'm going to try that banh mi with lemongrass tofu as soon as humanly possible.
• 25 Quick and Easy Weeknight Meals: The uova in purgatorio are a must-try, based on name alone. Also like the idea of lentils with ditalini...which reminds me of a Syrian dish called rishta, with wide noodles and brown lentils and a little allspice.
• 25 Tips for Frugal Cooking and Shopping: Ooh, muhjadarrah, lentils with rice this time.
  
• Which in turn reminds me of Francis Lam's koshary recipe.
  

Okay that last one isn't from The Kitchn, but now that I've got a theme going here I'll note that in general I'd like to learn how to make better use of "seasonless" dishes of grains and pulses to round out our plates of vegetables. Do you have any favorites in that category?
