We buy hinds of beef in order to cut down on the cost of meat. They always ask if we want the bones and I say yes. Then I have to boil the bones and make beef broth. The best use for the homemade beef broth that I have found is this recipe.
A blend of red, yellow and orange tomatoes makes for an eye-catching presentation, but feel free to use whichever variety you can find. Pair with garlic bread, a green salad and a crisp white wine for an elegant supper.

Grilling fruits and vegetables caramelizes their natural sweetness.
