Dinner! I forgot eggs for a different recipe so I used what was in the fridge to great results. Roasted walnuts and portobello with goat cheese and pepper on greens with olive oil and a little balsamic, carrots, and grapes. Yum

Basic recipe: scrape out mushroom and leave the stem. Sautee mushroom inners as not to waste them (or burn the shit out of them like i did. Whoops). Fill the mushroom with a goat cheese/olive oil mixture (to make the cheese a little easier to spread- add a little at a time in a small dish and see) and pit stem side up in a 400 degree oven for 15 minutes. Put some walnut and onions on the tray to toast them as well and enjoy over greens!

Roast veggie with quinoa and sherry vinegar/shallot vinaigrette with a big dollop of goat cheese.

I roasted beets, carrots, radishes, and turnips. Turns out I don’t like turnips that much. Next time I’ll add more carrots.

Recipe from the Smitten Kitchen cookbook. Definitely worth buying. Or in my case, worth getting it as a gift (thanks Anna).

Eggplant pasta and grilled peppers with pine nuts, feta, and balsamic reduction! I didn’t take a picture before I put the feta on and I ate it, but you’ll have to use your imagination.

Pasta recipe here

Pepper recipe (thanks mom!) You can probably make half the balsamic glaze, but extra is not really a calamity…

I red pepper seeded and cut into quarters

I yellow pepper seeded and cut into quarters

1 tbsp olive oil

½ cup balsamic vinegar

1 tbsp brown sugar

½ cup crumbled feta

¼ cup toasted pine nuts

1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

Brush peppers with oil, season and grill 5 mins per side (medium high 350-400 F, I broil mine). In the meantime mix vinegar and brown sugar, bring to boil and simmer to reduce by half until thickened ~ 10mins.

Sprinkle fetal and pine nuts on peppers, drizzle with balsamic glaze, fresh parsley as garnish and serve. I zap them under broiler to warm the feta if it was in the fridge then add parsley and serve. Any leftover glaze is delicious for dunking other grilled veggies or roasted fingerlings.

Recipe from an earlier post. See the last two recipes. I adapted the bean recipe to use canned beans because I didn’t want to wait for a day to eat.

Roasted Veggies!

Veggies on tray with olive oil and roast at 400°F until they’re done (30 ish minutes). Try with rosemary. I was going to then forgot to put on the veggies. Oops. Still tasty though. Eat with goat cheese and balsamic.
