With my III and final Thanksgiving just around the corner I wanted to make a lighter dish, a "healthier" dish, and one that is an all time family favorite: Grilled Vegetables.




This is the best way to cut a pepper, especially for grilling.

Weird, but our "balcony" does not come equipped with a grill, so instead I'm destined to broil in the oven.

Olive oil, minced garlic, pepper, garlic salt, salt and cayenne pepper


Dinner is served!
Carmelized onions, fresh mozzarella, roasted red peppers, and garlic toast.



Shared with a roommate and a glass of white wine, this is the perfect pre-Thanksgiving meal

Grilled veggies: Monday.
Pupu Platter of left over deliciousness: Tuesday
You can't leave for Thanksgiving break with leftovers in the fridge - so we EAT.

I have had a can of chickpeas in my cabinet for what seems like forever. I actually believe this particular canned good traveled with me when I moved, clearly it's time I use it!
I drained the can, and then blended the chickpeas with olive oil, the juice of half a lemon, salt, pepper, and cayenne.
It was delicious!
Chickpea dip, olive tapenade, roasted red peppers, spicy sausage, garlic toast, peppered mozzarella, and carmelized onions. So tasty.
Bon appetite, it's almost Turkey time!

  1. Do you know the "best way to cut pepper" also looks like a winking mustache face.
