I decided today to share one of my favorite recipes of late…polenta & veggie stuffed red peppers.  And they are around 275 calories for an entire pepper! Now, I’ve never been a huge fan of peppers…until I overlooked the price tag and bought red, orange and yellow peppers.  Oh my.  They are sweet and delicious cooked or raw.  So, the idea of stuffed peppers never appealed to me until I explored the world of rainbow peppers.  I found a few different recipes, tweaked things to my tastes and this is what I came up with… Start out by cutting four large red peppers in half… …remove the ribs… …and rinse out the seeds… Place all of the halves in a lightly greased baking pan. Preheat the oven to 425.  Chop up two zucchinis and one yellow squash and one small sweet onion.  (I usually add asparagus, too, but we were out.)

I’m having one of those days where I feel like I could write about five blog posts.  I just want to chat and tell you what I’ve been up to, what plans I have and some things that are are my mind.  The past few days, I’ve been in much more of a “doing mood” than a “taking-pictures-and-talking-about-it” mood.  And now I feel like chatting, but I don’t have a ton of time to write those five blog posts today.  So, I’m making a note of those things and I’ll share them here and there. Today, though, I want to share the most exciting thing.  We finished the range hood!!  The counters made a huge difference, but the range hood is definitely the icing on the cake.  It looks so custom and gourmet and high end and all of those things that are desirable in a kitchen.
