Sautéed Chard with Almonds and Dried Apricots

Deep-colored chard and good-fat almonds fight inflammation—tastily. For a spicier version of this easy dish, substitute escarole for the chard and add crushed red pepper flakes (chile peppers are also anti-inflammatory). Serve alongside steamed salmon.

Sardine and Sun-Dried Tomato Salad

Sardines contain the same inflammation-taming fats as salmon but are less expensive. Pairing sardines with tuna tones down their concentrated flavor; adjust the ratio if you like a pronounced taste. For a tuna-melt twist, spread this salad on sliced whole-grain bread, sprinkle with chopped tomatoes, and broil until hot.
