Simple: bell peppers, sauce, and cheese. Done. Eat some pizza.
Ingredients
  • 1 bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 C finely grated cheese (I used a mixture of cheddar and Gruyère)

  • 1 T balsamic vinegar
  • 1-2 T water
  • pinch salt
  • 1 T garlic infused olive oil (or just regular olive oil)
  • 1 t olive oil
  • 1 pizza crust (I used French bread dough, after it had gone though its first rise)
Instructions
  1. Grease baking sheet with 1 t olive oil. Spread out dough. Bake at 450F for 7 minutes. Remove from oven. Using a spatula, gently unstick from pan, if it’s stuck.
  2. Mix together tomato paste, vinegar, salt, water (use just a bit to start), and remaining olive oil. Spread sauce on crust. Top with peppers and cheese.
  3. Bake for 5-7 minutes more.

Beet and Beef Borscht

Recipe Type: Soup, Main, Dinner, Appetizer, Side

Hearty and warm, this Borscht is a family favorite of ours.
Ingredients
  • 2 T olive oil
  • 1 lb. chuck roast, cut into smallish cubes
  • 4 carrots, chopped
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 4 small beets, peeled and chopped
  • 4-6 celery stalks, chopped
  • 1 daikon radish, chopped
  • 3 potatoes, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1-2 T fresh lemon juice
  • 10-12 C chicken or vegetable stock (or mixture of both) (use more or less depending on how thick you want the soup)
  • 2 t salt (or to taste)
  • pepper (to taste)
  • Greek yogurt or sour cream (for topping)
Instructions
  1. Pat each piece of beef dry with a paper towel (this helps it to brown better – this step can be skipped if you’re short on time). Heat large soup pot. Add olive oil. When oil is hot, add beef, being sure not to over-crowd the pan. Cook, over medium heat, until beef is browned, about 10 minutes or so. Remove beef from pan with a slotted spoon and set aside.
  2. Add veggies and salt and pepper to soup pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are getting tender.
  3. Add beef and stock and bring up to a boil. Once it’s boiling, reduce to a low boil or a simmer, and cook 1-2 hours (until veggies are tender), adding more stock or water if it gets too thick.
  4. Add lemon juice. Taste and add more salt if desired.
  5. Serve topped with a dolup of yogurt.
Notes

I serve this with warm rolls or bread, with butter. Perfect for dipping into the soup.

Cute persimmons are turned into a warm, fall tasting sauce when combined with cinnamon, nutmeg, and honey. Perfect to top some Cornmeal Pancakes.

  • 1/4 t cinnamon
  • pinch nutmeg

(Optional: At about the 20 minute mark, when persimmons are fairly soft, mash with a fork to desired consistency. A potato masher, hand blender, or food processor could also be used.)
