Roasted Peas with Sun Dried Tomatoes & Mozzarella

Hey there!!

How is everyone?  Well, Fall has arrived here with non stop rain.  I think I may have seen just a few sun rays for a few seconds the other day but that’s about it.  Ok, but  the fact is that I do love this season, the brown color tones  are gorgeous.  But that’s just me,  I love the earthy colors.  🙂   

My daily walks with Charlie, now include hubby.  Which is great because we take much longer walks than the usual 1 hour morning walk that I used to take with Charlie.  Charlie loves to run, he’s a dog of course he loves to run. 🙂 I take him to a park close to our house.  The park is full of leaves and he just loves running through the leaves because of  that crackling sounds.  This morning it was really funny, he suddently stops, he sat and tilted his head left and right.  I could see that he was trying to figure out where that sound could possibly be coming from. 🙂  

So, during my morning walk with Charlie and hubby I was so inspired by the colors I saw that I wanted to make a dish with similar colors.  🙂  I had almost all the ingredients except for the Green Peas.  I popped into our neighborhood supermarket, and pick up a few more things and returned home to start cooking. 

Keep in mind that this recipe is definitely budget friendly and quick to make.  And of course very tastyyyy.  I really do not like eating Green Peas but this dish has seriously changed my mind. 🙂   A simple and quick dish to prepare when you are in a  rush.  It takes about 30 minutes to put together and believe me with a delicious taste.   

Have a great day today everyone and a lovely weekend!! 🙂

Welcome to a small corner of my Greek Heritage. Growing up in New York from Greek parents, was a challenge of its own...but the traditional food, tastes and aromas that my mother cooked always travelled me back to Greece. My mother is a wonderful cook, our house would always have that smell of home cooked food. I remember very clearly that we were only allowed fast food, once a week, that was a huge day for myself and my brother. Jumping up and down in the back car seat, laughing, just being kids. It is true that we all like to eat different foods, taste, smell, even try food that looks different than our regular meals at home and I think that is so natural. In my teens, I was not really into cooking, I enjoyed my magazines after school, listening to music, and just taking a breather. There were times that I would glance at some of my mom's recipes, more out of curiosity than to actually try to cook them. At that time I did not realise that cooking would become my passion one day. Slowly, I would start to look into my mom's recipes a bit more each day and I started to find it interesting as a hobby. Each month I would go into our neighborhood bookstore and pick up my monthly book, until one day I decided to stroll over into the cooking section. That summer was the first time I actually bought a cooking magazine....and I loved it. Cooking and baking started out as a hobby, but now after many years it is my passion. Exploring the cuisines, the spices, the oils, the scents, the variety of smells and tastes that exist. It was and still is an amazing journey without limits. So, come along with me on this adventure, and I hope you enjoy my recipes. Sophie
