My mouth was practically watering when I watched her do a simple vegetable salad with potatoes, green beans, roasted peppers, scallions, garlic, herbs, and a lemon vinaigrette. It's ridiculously easy, and the recipe is here.
Ken and I both loved this. I had fun making it too, because I got to roast a pepper for the first time, and peel the skin. I've never been a big fan of bell peppers, but I can handle them better when they're roasted. They were mild, and slightly sweet.
I learned something, too. Don't roast things on parchment paper. Duh. I'm dumb.
Before, burned parchment, and yummy pepper:
I had intended to make the Tempeh Hot Wings from Don't Eat Off The Sidewalk that we have all the damn time, but for some reason the tempeh was all crumbly when I removed it's packaging. So I improvised with a basic "chicken" salad recipe. Crumbled tempeh (boiled), veginaise, mustard, chopped onions, a few shakes of La Chikky, chilled.
Oh, I wish we had a better camera. And perhaps some natural light.

oh wow! i want a plate of this food right now!!! i still watch loads of foodnetwork shows and PBS cooking shows.
i get to see giada & ina garten while i'm at the gym. sometimes that semi-home made show is still on, but i can't stand that show. i'm sorry, a can of pie filling thrown into a store bought crust does not deserve a show.
Ah natural light, that would be nice this time of year!! I think we spring forward soon....
That salad does look delicious! And I love Ace of Cakes... they do some awesome stuff.
