Cooking

I've learned that cooking for friends is a great way to bless people. I'm finally learning how to cook! :) Recently, I made Vegetable Pizza with eggplant and zuchinni...

Here's the recipe:

1 eggplant (peeled and cubed) 14 tsp salt 2 zucchini (sliced) 1 sweet potato (peeled and cut into 12 inch cubes) 1 onion (peeled and cut into eighths) 1 red bell pepper (cut into 1 inch pieces) 14 cup olive oil

1 tbsp fresh rosemary (chopped) 14 tsp pepper 8 ozs prebaked pizza crusts (wheat) 1 tsp olive oil 13 cup asiago cheese (shaved)

	1. Sprinkle eggplant with salt, and let stand 30 minutes. Pat dry.
	2. Preheat oven to 400°. Toss together eggplant, zucchini, and next 6 ingredients, and arrange in a single layer in 2 aluminum foil-lined 15- x 10-inch jelly-roll pans.
	3. Bake at 400° for 45 minutes or until vegetables are tender and golden brown. Season with salt to taste.
	4. Place crust on a baking sheet. Brush crust with 1 tsp. olive oil. Top with 2 cups roasted vegetables; reserve remaining vegetables for another use. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake at 400° for 15 minutes or until crust is crisp and cheese is melted.

 Last night, I decided to have church friends over for a Hawaiian meal...spam, eggs, and rice! It's the best with seaweed and you can make spam musubis...

We played MASH for hours, Mafia, and laughed the night away...I love having people over. There's something wonderful about food and fellowship. Thank you Lord!
