And the food Journey continues...

Last night I had my brother and his family over for supper. For starters I made a roasted vegetable soup. It was yummy and very healthy. I cut up 2 onions, 2 zucchinis, half an eggplant, 4 carrots, a whole head of garlic, 2 yellow peppers, and 2 fresh tomatoes. I tossed them lightly in some olive oil, salt, pepper and oregano. Popped them in the oven for 45 minutes, then added water and pureed it. YUM!
For the main course, I took a recipe from my new favorite cookbook. The recipe: `Linguine with Sausage and Cherry Tomatoes` was what I settled on. It was really good and very simple to make. The only thing is that I didn't have cherry tomatoes. I substituted with half a can of diced tomatoes that I drained the liquid from. It was a good substitution if you don't have fresh cherry tomatoes. It`s also a cheaper alternative, as we all know how expensive cherry tomatoes can get when they are not in season. All in all, it was a yummy supper that I would definately make again.
