Grilled Eggplant with Provolone Cheese
Aug 27, 2010
You can turn this colourful and delicious lasagna into a vegetarian main course by omitting the pancetta.
Grilling the vegetables before baking gives them a subtle smokiness that makes this casserole special. For extraordinary results, use fresh mozzarella (the kind stored in water at Italian delicatessens and cheese shops).
This is a great, quick, easy and yummy pasta dish. As a child I was brought up with fennel as a snack. It's great after lunch or dinner(sometimes drizzled with a little olive oil and balsamic vinegar). If I would bring for lunch at work everyone would think I was eating onions! Not many people have experimented with fennel...so this recipie allows people to experience this great vegetable in a new and delicious way. Enjoy!
These plump and tasty shells, with their flavourful filling and chunky beef sauce, make a popular Canadian Living classic.
Flavourful little sauces not only dress up oysters but also offer delicious introductions to first-time oyster eaters. Each sauce is enough for one dozen shucked oysters.
My family absolutely loves this dish. It is one of those wonderful dishes that is best prepared the day ahead which leaves you plenty of time for entertaining when your friends are over. It came about as my son was dating a girl who was a vegetarian, I wanted to make a dish for supper that we could all enjoy with her. I looked at a variety of recipes and formulated this one, which we have come to love - I have shared the recipe with garlic loving friends who just can't get enough! All the ingredients can be grown in my backyard, although I usually buy the eggplant at the St. Jacobs Farmers market in Waterloo, about 15 minutes from my home. Serve this with a caesar salad and some crusty bread and voila! A meal your friends won't soon forget!
This recipe is a bit labour-intensive, but it makes two pans – one to eat tonight and another that freezes beautifully for another time.
Cozy up to a bowl of pasta. This rich and meaty sauce is the definition of comfort food.
