Recipe of the Week

I'm on week two of my new recipe exploration and it's Ratatouille with a poached egg over toasted French bread on the menu. This dish is made with yummy eggplant, tomatoes, zucchini, yellow bell peppers, and fresh garlic, seasoned with thyme and oregano. Veggies are marinated in olive oil and seasonings, roasted in the oven, and served on warm toasted baguette. The dish is topped off with a poached egg. Yum!

For dessert, we had homemade ice cream sandwiches- homemade cookies, store-bought ice cream. The cookies are spicy gingersnaps and the ice cream is butter pecan. I decided to throw in some fresh peach slices because they are so sweet and juicy right now. Perfect tangy compliment to the very sweet and very rich creamy treat.

  1. That looks so scrumptious. I would not have thought about putting ginger snaps and butter pecan together, but what a great idea!
