Both of these dinners were (directly or indirectly) inspired by 101 Cookbooks. First, there's chickpea soup with homemade pasta (inspired by this recipe -- and reading Heidi's description of it now makes me want to make it again immediately). My version included carrots and mushrooms, and the broth was half vegetable, half chickpea cooking liquid.The other meal was more indirectly related to 101 Cookbooks; I think it seemed 101 Cookbooks-ish to me because of the wild rice, which Heidi uses quite frequently. It was a sort of stir-fry of wild rice, thinly sliced cabbage (thanks to my As Seen On TV V-slicer), mushrooms, spring onions and chickpeas, along with garlic and thyme. It needed a little acid, so I finished it off with some lime juice and it was good.

wow - this looks really good to me. i hear at patrick's day, they throw potatoes, cabbage, and carrots from the parade... i may have to catch a cabbage...
If there's a cabbage flying at you, you'd better catch it!
(I wonder how many parade related concussions there are.)
