An Armenian Eggplant Casserole

My daughter has been busy this week studying the country of Armenia!  Friday she will make a presentation to her class.  As part of her presentation, she will take samples of a common meal they eat:

TRADITIONAL ARMENIAN 

EGGPLANT CASSEROLE

I decided to post the recipe because it consists of healthy vegetables that we bought at our local FARMERS MARKET!  Also, I thought it was really good!

What I used...

• 2 small eggplants
• 1 medium onion
• 1 green bell pepper
• 2 minced garlic cloves
• 4 medium tomatoes
• olive oil
• salt & pepper
• tarragon

Roasting Almonds Experiment- 6 flavors!

This week my friend Ashley G, Taylor, and I played around with 

ROASTING ALMONDS. 

We used 10 lbs of RAW ALMONDS.

 Some turned out AMAZING and some were NOT so awesome, but we learned a lot! 

 I will be posting the recipes and reviews this next week.  

So go now and buy your almonds and get ready for roasting!  

Almonds make the perfect snack for school, work, or 

after a workout!!!
