It was game night, so we were a bit rushed; luckily I had had time on Saturday to do a fair bit of prep, so we didn't have to eat in the car or anything. Another recipe from my trusty favorite, "I Dream of Dinner": blistered peppers with chick peas, fresh mozzarella and croutons. Definitely giving panzanella. Super easy: I just roasted the peppers and chick peas in a bunch of olive oil with whole garlic cloves, red pepper flakes and smoked paprika. I made croutons from Fridays bread, and tossed everything together (her plating was more layered and fancy but this worked great). I didn't bother to toast any nuts but did top with some chopped smoked almonds I found in the freezer. I loved this dish so much...the spicy crispy chick peas, the toasty croutons, the sweetness of the peppers. It was a meal unto itself and I will be sure to make it again. I really ought to buy that book.
