Oven Roasted Peppers and Eggplant
When I was growing up it seemed that everything was simple. My mother would go outside and pick a few things in the garden and a delicious meal was prepared. Zucchini flowers, peppers, tomatoes, fresh basil. I think you get the idea. These were much simpler times and quite frankly, the place I go in my heart to find comfort. I sometimes try to create a dish from my memory of the meals that I grew up with. Ingredients
- 2 bell peppers – sliced
- 1 eggplant – cut into quarters
- 3 vine ripe tomatoes – quartered

- ¼ tsp. black pepper

- ½ tsp. garlic powder
- 3 tbs. olive oil
- Dressing:
- 1 tsp. sugar
