Herbed Veggie Bake

Super simple dish made with veggies that are probably cascading out of everyone’s gardens right about now.  It probably would have been delicious- had I not burned the shit out of it.  Wine + reading late at night with dinner in the oven = disaster.  Jim still ate it (no surprise there) and he claimed […]

Quesadilla Overload
