Fall Menu
Grilled Veggies are happily still with us for a while. A grilled bell pepper ... stuffed with a selection of marinated and grilled veggies smothered in your choice of sauce ... and parmesan cheese. Accompanied by marinated, then ever so lightly toasted herbs when available.
The mini version, clustered in a buffet, is a popular easy-on-the-hostess addition for a party.
And with the cooler weather ... warming soups are happening. Pasta e fagoli. Minestrone.
And polenta. Lovely, golden, corny, comforting and fortifying. We are playing with variations as I type.
