Moroccan Breakfast

Shakshuka

Cut up one jalepeno, one green pepper, one red pepper, half a teaspoon of cumin, a few cloves of garlic, and saute in a frying pan with some olive oil. Next open up one can of stewed whole tomatoes and add into pan. Once all the items are cooked begin to break up the tomatoes and add in one whole cut up white onion. I added in crumbled soy chorizo, but you can skip that or add in meat options. Once everything is broken down and it is almost like a sauce you can add in a few eggs cover with a lid and once the eggs are cooked you can serve with some bread. This is a very filling dish that can be served in the morning or any time of the day!

Yummy Girls Dinner

Since we were having a girls night we decided to do some Moscato wine, What better to pair dairy appetizers with. A co-worker of mine brought me the largest zucchini I have ever seen in my life. I scooped out the inside and added in the rice and feta cheese mixture I created. For the mixture I first cooked a cup of rice with a few spoons of tomato sauce, fresh Thyme, sauteed onion, tomato, garlic with crumbled feta cheese. Place into the oven first just the zucchini with some oil and salt for 30 minutes on 300 and then the stuffed zucchini on 350 for another 30 minutes. The results are amazing. You can use any squash of your choice and any filling.

For the goat cheese dough bites I used a pre-made dough from Trader Joes, topped it off with some herbed goat cheese and balsamic reduced red onions. These were a favorite, the taste of the goat cheese with the sweet onions are just delicious together.

I paired this dinner with an assembled cheese plate, mozzarella balls, a large salad, my olive tapenade.
