Dinner 2025

[Dejah]

Took a drive out to our farm house and to enjoy the fall colours. Got home too late to bake the huge ham, so I did 2 thick slices on the pan, drizzled with maple syrup.

Ajvar-Chicken with Carrots - chicken breast is quickly pan-seared, before smeared with ajvar and finished in the oven. Carrots, chickpeas, red onions and garlic are sauteed and cooked with a mix of vegetable broth and ajvar before finished with sour cream, mint, parsley, lemon zest and juice

The last of the gift salad kits! I added home-grown tomato, bacon, skipped the bagel chips and made some garlic toast (Penzey's Garden Salad Blend + olive oil).

 

Tonight I am going to have some hot food--I'm saladed out for a while, though I've got a lot of tomatoes to use. And it is a chilly day, too!

I had to look up ajvar. Grilled red peppers and eggplant sounds like a good combination that I've seen under other names. Do you make your own? If so, is the Serious Eats link I put in here close to what you do?
