sunday dinner

Before leaving for the movies, I prepare dinner. 

Alexander and I leave for the Cape on Tuesday, so I collect all the vegetables in my  fridge and cut them up.  Onions.  Yellow and green zucchini.  Pea pods.  And small cherry vine tomatoes.  I add black truffle salt and olive oil.  It looks beautiful.

Next, I roast some peppers.  Something I did for the first time just a few weeks ago.  I love the transformation.  I add olive oil and Villa Manodori Acetto Balsamico (worth its exorbitant $55 price) and season with oregano. The finished product looks less than beautiful but is still delicious.

Before...

And after.

I buy the main course: chicken marsala…$14 for a pound; just enough for one meal for Alexander and two for me.  Aside from the main course, it's a nice healthy dinner.
