I'll be cooking all day, so will probably have delivered pizza or chinese. What are you all up to today?
Tested this one yesterday for Thursday's party and it's just great! Should be served with pita chips, but don't know what I'll find so may go with crackers. It's from Whole Foods.
Roasted Peppers with Marinated Feta and Greek Olives
Serves 4
2 roasted red bell peppers
1 pound feta cheese, cut into cubes
1 cup fresh black Greek olives, pitted
1 small red onion, diced (any sweet onion like Vidalia or Maui will also work)
3 cloves minced garlic
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons fresh thyme
salt
freshly ground black pepper
lemon juice
Combine the peppers, feta and olives in a large bowl. Add the olive oil and toss gently. Add the remaining ingredients and toss gently again. Adjust seasonings, cover and chill at least 5 hours before serving. Serve this with toasted pita bread as an appetizer.
hmmm, I have some left, maybe that'll be our dinner!

Retired and having fun writing cookbooks, tasting wine and sharing recipes with all my friends.
