Sunday Dish

And the cooking for today is Turkey Cacciatore!

I rushed off to the grocery store EARLY before all the slackers and their aisle-blocking offspring could get there, so early they hadn't even put out fresh broccoli yet which makes you wonder, when you go to the grocery store just before they close and they start acting like they're restocking are they in fact restocking or just trying to block off all the food so you get discouraged and go home? Anyway - I was looking at Epicurious and thought cacciatore might be a nice way to disguise icky rubbery boingy turkey breast and there was a recipe for roast veg cacciatore and I read the reviews but did not read the recipe carefully and made it anyway even tho I forgot to get another can of diced tomatoes.

Turkey Cacciatore w/ Roast Vegetables

Zucchini
Mushrooms (cremini)
Dried porcini mushrooms (this was the whole point of making cacciatore and I just now realized that I had forgotten to put them in so I went and put them in)
bell pepper
red onion
--- cut into bite sized chunks and toss with olive oil. spread on cookie sheet and roast at 400, stirring occasionally. When they're done the onions will be carmelized and the whole thing will smell like pizza.... except that it's not pizza, no pizza for me
---- clean kitchen while roasting veg

In large (laaaarrge) skillet cook 1lb ground turkey breast
Add 14oz diced canned tomatoes and ~1c broth
Add the roast veg, some balsamic vinegar, a few red pepper flakes, ~1T crushed Herbes de Provence
Simmer.
It smells pretty good. I haven't tasted it yet and I have dinner with my parents on Sunday because I am so exciting. Someone try it and tell me if it's good.

6:00 wake
9:00 tomato/spinach sauce, buffalo burger, coffee
11:00 small grapefruit, chicken
2:00 coffee, almonds, orange
4:00 LISS 60m
6:00 healthy dinner
