When I first put up this blog I had absolutely no idea what I was doing or if I would even like doing it. I can happily say that I truly love taking pictures of my food and writing about it. But what really thrills me the most are all the lovely comments from my readers. Readers who span the globe on 6 continents, reaching out and visiting me in my little corner of cyberspace here in New York City. I want to thank all of you who have been visiting me from the beginning and for those of you who are new to my blog. Old friends and new friends who I have met along the way. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your wonderful comments on here and in private messages and emails. I truly appreciate them and it inspires me to cook more.


Thank you,

Sandi

Roasted Italian Vegetables

I love fresh vegetables.  This recipe is quick and tasty.  In this dish I have only used mushrooms and green peppers because that is what I have on hand but I have also made it with zucchini, eggplant and red onions.  You can basically use whatever vegetables you like.







Roasted Italian Vegetables
Serves 4

Ingredients
8 oz large mushrooms, quartered
2 green peppers, cut into 1 inch pieces
4 garlic cloves
Juice of half a lemon
1 tsp. dried oregano
1 tsp. dried parsley
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
salt and pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 400. Place mushrooms, peppers and garlic in a casserole dish.  Mix together the lemon juice, oregano, parsley, oil, salt and pepper and pour over the vegetables.  Bake for a half hour or until vegetables are soft.
