Use up the last of your summer harvest in this savory mouth watering roasted eggplant and tomato salad! This turned out to be a most delicious way to use up a garden harvest of fresh eggplant and tomatoes. I slow roasted the veggies in the oven and served it over a bed of baby lettuce …
Lunch or dinner for 2 that is healthy, wholesome and ready in less than 20 minutes? Yes, please! Cauliflower is one of those vegetables that I’m just starting to REALLY like in the last few years. I blame any dislike on those family holiday dinners where a certain family member cooked everything in the microwave. …

When I un-cook or cook as the case sometimes is, I don’t always measure things but go by look, taste, and what ingredients I have on hand. This way is intuitive and usually 99% delicious.
