Fresh basil= pesto. Or good with tomatoes (and possibly mozzarella) in salad! There are many ways to do a non-dairy pesto if that's an issue. http://vegnews.com/web/articles/page.do?pageId=2170&catId=11 is one I've been meaning to try. Yes, I realize these ideas involve acquiring *more* produce. : /
Greens (ok, or the basil) can also be tossed into a pasta sauce, IMO. But I like bitter greens more than you do, I'm guessing. Maybe a good bet for the milder greens.
I really like kohlrabi in stir fry (protein, soy sauce, other seasonings and veggies of choice...). Or just sauteed with olive oil and the seasonings of your choice (garlic is always good!). It's got a nice, slightly peppery flavor I like. Also they look like little Sputniks, which is cool.
I've only ever done kale chips in the oven, so I'm guessing arugula chips would work better that way as well. Spreading them out properly on a baking sheet is probably helpful.
