Tri Colored Roasted Bell Pepper Salad
Tri Colored Roasted Bell Pepper Salad
INGREDIENTS
DIRECTIONS
Broil the peppers on a baking sheet in the oven, until their skins are charred and the flesh is somewhat tender. You can also grill them on a BBQ. Do not over roast, or the flesh will be mushy. It should be tender but still firm enough to hold its shape when cut. When the bell peppers are cool enough to handle (Putting them in a brown bag speeds this process & makes it easier to peel), peel their skins off and remove the seeds. Divide each bell pepper lengthways into half, then slice each half into strips, not too thin and not too thick. Put them in a mixing bowl, add the fresh herbs, garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Serve slightly chilled.

Cinnamon Apple Strudel
INGREDIENTS
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 400 degrees; line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. On a lightly floured work surface, unfold pastry; roll out to a 12-by-14-inch rectangle. Place on sheet; refrigerate.
In a large skillet, melt butter over medium; reserve 1 tablespoon in a small bowl. To skillet, add apples, 1/2 cup sugar, and cinnamon. Increase heat to medium-high; cook, tossing occasionally, until apples are tender and liquid has evaporated, about 15 minutes. Spread filling on a second rimmed baking sheet; let cool completely.
With one short side of dough facing you, mound filling horizontally in a strip across the center, leaving a 1-inch border on both long sides. Fold top part, then bottom part of dough over filling. Turn pastry over, seam side down.
Brush pastry with reserved melted butter; sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons sugar. Using a paring knife, cut steam vents in center of pastry. Bake until golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes. Let rest 10 minutes before serving.
