Quinoa with Apples, Celery Root, Arugula and Pecans
1 cup uncooked quinoa
2 cups water
Kosher salt
1 Gala apple, cored and thinly sliced
4 ounces celery root (about 1 cup), thinly sliced
4 cups arugula, packed
1 cup pecans, roughly chopped
2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon honey
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon flaky sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper
In a fine mesh sieve, rinse the quinoa under cold water and strain. Combine the quinoa, water and salt in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce the heat, and gently simmer for 12-15 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer the quinoa to a strainer to drain out the remaining cooking liquid. Fluff the quinoa with a fork, spread it onto a baking sheet in one even layer and refrigerate until it is has cooled about 25 minutes. In a large bowl, whisk the lemon juice, honey, and olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Add the chilled quinoa, sliced apples, celery root, arugula, and pecans and toss well to combine. Taste to adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Peel, core, and cut the pears and apples into large chunks. Place the fruit in a large bowl and add the zests, juices, sugar, flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Pour into a 9 x 12 x 2-inch oval baking dish. For the topping, combine the flour, sugars, salt, oatmeal, and butter in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on low speed for 1 minute, until the mixture is in large crumbles. Sprinkle evenly over the fruit, covering the fruit completely. Place the baking dish on a sheet pan and bake for 50 minutes to one hour, until the top is brown and the fruit is bubbly. Serve warm.

1 Loaf of country style bread, thick cut slices toasted on a sheet tray
1 Head of Butter lettuce, separated leaves
3 medium vine-ripened tomatoes, thick-cut slices
8 Strips of bacon, fried until crispy
2 Garlic cloves
1 cup Mayonnaise
1/4 cup Fresh Basil
3 Fresh chives
Lemon juice
Begin by making the basil mayonnaise so the flavors have time to come together. Combine all the ingredients in a blender and pulse until combined. Cover and refrigerate while you prepare the sandwich.
Heat a cast iron griddle pan/skillet or outdoor grill until smoking hot. Season the skirt steak with plenty of kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil then grill both sides for 3 to 4 minutes until medium rare. Set aside loosely tented with aluminum foil while you prepare the other fillings.
To assemble, take one slice of the toasted bread and rub a garlic clove all over 1 side. Put a big slather of basil mayonnaise across the bread. Layer the lettuce over the top and then the thick-cut slices of tomato. Top with the crispy bacon slices and season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Take the skirt steak and using a sharp knife cut across the grain into thick slices. Lay the pieces of the sliced skirt steak on the top of the open sandwich and serve with more basil mayonnaise on the side.
