Baby Greens with Broiled Lemons : page 54
You need about an hour's lead time for this recipe since the lemon slices need to macerate in sugar for about an hour before broiling and composing the salad.
Since you are using the whole lemon, rind and all, I would suggest using lemons with a thinner rind. And even with a thin rind, it is important to slice the lemons as thinly as possible since otherwise the rind can add too bitter a note to the salad.
The broiled lemons are added to the greens along with EVOO and salt and pepper.
I can't wait to try this one with Meyer lemons.
This recipe was published in the NY Times (link below) if you are interesting in trying this but don't have the cookbook.

French Country Cabbage Soup : page 38
A simple hearty soup that turns into something really special with the addition of blue cheese. A loaf of crusty bread completes the meal, and if you are in the mood for a splurge, pick up some French butter for that bread in the dairy aisle at Whole Foods.
