The garden thrives...in JANUARY!
Last night I made the most healthful, satisfying meal... from the garden.
Here's how:
--Pick a peck of un-pickled peppers (bell peppers)
--Snag a few jalapenos to chop finely (I like it hot)
--Yank a couple of tomatoes (big ones, little ones...red ones, yellow ones)
--Open and rinse a can of corn....(unless you grow your own)
--Open and rinse a can of beans...(your favorite...I like the little black ones)
If you like meat, fry up some super lean chuck; otherwise, don't.
In large pan put together everything except the bell peppers. Slice the peppers lengthwise, seed them and put them in a baking bowl.
Heat the other ingredients and season to taste. I like rosemary (garden), thyme (garden) onions, Italian seasoning, coarse salt and pepper.
Pre-heat the oven at 350. Pour all the ingredients over the peppers, throw the bowl in the oven and bake for 1 hour.
If you want to be decadent...(and who doesn't?)...put a couple of slices or shredded cheese over the top about 45 minutes into baking.
Serve this with some piping hot garlic bread. (I didn't because I forgot.)
Enjoy!
P.s. A perfect wine pairing is Seven Deadly Zins~~now you can enjoy even more!
