If you have corned beef at your restaurant, but you’re not serving Reuben sandwiches, I highly recommend you try them on your menu. Today, I’m going to show you two different ways to make a Reuben sandwich using corned beef.

I’ll make the classic version with sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, and Thousand Island dressing on rye bread. Then, alongside that I’ll make my personal favorite – a twist on the classic Reuben sandwich that substitutes pickled beet relish for sauerkraut. The sweetness of the beets pairs perfectly with the saltiness of the corned beef, and I just love beets!

Why hash browns? I, like many others, love hash brown potatoes. Tender potato enveloped in a crispy golden brown exterior potato crust… a favorite amongst all breakfast potato connoisseurs. But, why should something do good be primarily served as a breakfast side? I say cross your hash browns over from corner of the plate to center stage! Here are a few fun and approachable ways to present hash browns as the star of your menu.

• Use as a crust for a quiche or frittata (see our Quichetata video)
• Use as a plank style poutine presentation
• Top crispy hash browns with pulled chicken + drizzle with buffalo aioli sauce and shower with blue cheese crumbles
• Use in place of bread as a base for bruschetta
• Use in place of bread for a twist on a breakfast sandwich
• Top with whipped cream cheese, smoked salmon, capers, shaved onions and chopped chives
• Perfect for a “potato pizza” top with red sauce, pizza cheese and your favorite pizza toppings for a creative play on pizza

St. Patrick’s Day is known for corned beef dinners, juicy briskets, and bangers. Oh my! Alongside green beer – tender, juicy, and delicious meats become the talk of the day. Which also makes it far too easy to focus your St. Patrick’s Day menu on “the meats.” With that in mind, don’t overlook the simple, delicious, and truly green (no dye here) possibilities St. Patty’s presents for your menu. Finding creative opportunities for flavor and color in March puts more green on your menu and in your register! And because the classics and “the meats” are still important, here’s a link for those too!

Green eggs for Breakfast and Brunch:

Simply add the following to a blender and blend until smooth and green. Perfect for a green egg omelet. Add diced ham for a green eggs and ham omelet.

• 12 eggs
• 4 bunch scallions (chives will work) rough cut
• 1 clove garlic
• 2 hearty pinches of Salt
• 1 hearty pinch of Pepper

Chimi up your proteins!

Chimichurri is a delicious herbaceous way to get your green on. Add the following to a blender and blend until smooth and green. Chimi is a great way to add a finishing top layer of green to steaks, seafood, or poultry.

• 1 cup cider vinegar
• 2 oz EVOO
• 3 clove garlic
• 4 oz yellow onion rough chop
• 1 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley
• 1 cup fresh chives rough cut
• 1 cup fresh cilantro
• Salt & pepper to taste

Za’atar, the all-in-one green spice rub!

This green blend of thyme, oregano, sumac, and sesame seeds is a palate-pleasing blend that’s suitable for many applications.

• Heavily rub your burgers with it
• Toss your wings in a generous amount of it
• Mix it with ranch dressing for a fun dipping sauce
• Mix a generous amount into sauerkraut for use on a Reuben sandwich
• Make a cream sauce to use for chicken or shrimp pasta dishes

Don’t forget to use avocado, broccoli, spinach, and arugula in creative ways!

Whether it’s the star of your dish or a tasty pop of color, green produce is a delicious and healthy way to add green appeal to your best sellers. Avocado, spinach, and arugula are ideal for many menu applications. For more inspiration in the produce department, check out our seasonal produce picks.

Most of us purchase and use eggplant for traditional preparations, such as eggplant Parmesan, grilled and stuffed with ricotta for an Eggplant Roulade or perhaps even a breaded eggplant version of a French fry. But ultimately, there will come a time when you find a handful of eggplant within the case that are looking less than desirable. Speckled with blemishes & feel soft to the touch or skin that has turned a light tan color (and not the color tan you want to paint your walls with.) If you are purchasing a long slender variety, you may find the eggplant to be what can best be described as “limp” after some time. This however, is no reason to discard the ugly “eggplantlings” of the bunch.

Enter the world of Caponata. Eggplant Caponata is a traditional Sicilian eggplant-based condiment. Great served on grilled crusty bread, perfect and subtle enough to serve with seafood & yet complex enough to serve with beef or pork. Thus, making Caponata one of the most well rounded and diverse eggplant dishes you can add to your repertoire.

Tasty Ideas:

• As an accoutrement on a cheese/charcuterie board
• As an alternative to pizza sauce
• Fold into a Hollandaise sauce for a creative twist on eggs Benedict
• When roasting a whole chicken or turkey, place a generous amount under the skin to impart nice flavors to the flesh during the baking process.
• Add to a risotto, along with a pinch of saffron for a great vegetarian menu offering, or for the base of a kick ass Osso Bucco.
• Use as a condiment for an Italian deli sandwich; either straight up, mixed with mayo for an aioli or together folded into mustard for a unique sandwich condiment… eggplant mustard.
