My first recipe..

Yes, I often throw together whatever leftovers I have in my fridge to create a meal, but this is the first time that I sat down and planned what to buy ahead of time, based on flavors, and then set out to concoct a new recipe. Success! This is also the first food pic that I've taken myself and posted. First, I roasted eggplant, shiitakes, butternut squash and onion with olive oil and garlic. While that was cooking, I made some brown rice and thawed pesto from the end of the summer. Tossed everything together, topped with some parmesan, and can I just tell you that it was amazing?? I have to credit the roasting process though, it's so easy and yummy that you really can't go wrong. And summer pesto also helps.
