Pasta Salad with Cherry Tomatoes, Bocconcini and Spicy Tapenade
This is another beautiful, quick and easy dish. You can eat it warm (not hot, simply the residual heat from the pasta) for dinner, or for lunch at room temperature or cold. Baby Lady loves to take this for lunch. Continue reading Pasta Salad with Cherry Tomatoes, Bocconcini and Spicy Tapenade
Stuffed Roasted Peppers with Eggplant and Mushroom Stuffing
While shopping at our local market this past week they were having a sale on these beautiful yellow and orange bell peppers for $1.00 @. I couldn’t resist so I bought a couple and a nice green one for additional color. You see, I have had this stuffed pepper dish I have been dying to make.

Zucchini Fritters
I realize that for purposes of aesthetics you should stack items like cookies and fritters. The problem is this is a food blog. I just happen to like my camera and playing with it. Food, on the other hand, I take seriously. No one serves zucchini fritters in a stack and you surely don’t eat them that way. Continue reading Zucchini Fritters
Mushroom Burger with Italian Red Sauce, Pesto, Carmelized Onions, Provolone and Parmesan Cheeses on a Kaiser Roll
8 or 9 years ago on business I was traveling in St. Louis. It was late. The restaurant I wanted to go for dinner was closed that evening and I had an early day the next morning.

It was the best part of the trip! Continue reading Mushroom Burger with Italian Red Sauce, Pesto, Carmelized Onions, Provolone and Parmesan Cheeses on a Kaiser Roll

Sandwiches for dinner! Really, it was only 1 sandwich but it was large enough to feed Baby Lady, Quickstep and me, along with kale chips and grilled corn on the cob with mojo de ajo. What a treat. Continue reading Grilled Eggplant Zucchini Sandwich with Garlic Sun Dried Tomato Spread and Goat Cheese
Cream of Eggplant Soup
It has been a beautiful winter throughout the country this year. I had almost forgotten about winter. Almost, then I came to Chicago. It was 81 F when I left Dallas at 5:00 pm. When I arrived in Chicago it was 38 F. As I sit in O’Hare waiting on my flight home, the thermometer is steadily dropping, it’s dreary outside and snow is on the way. I am ready for a nice bowl of soup instead of this rubberized chicken salad at Macaroni Grill. Food on the plane would have been better. Blech! 😦 Continue reading Cream of Eggplant Soup
