Making this carrot and red pepper mash is somewhat time consuming, but it always comes out tasting so, so delicious.
I find that I do not mind. The roasting process is quite wonderful for me.
In the roasting pan goes the vegetables -- all shiny after having received an ample massage with olive oil. This time, I added some rosemary sprigs.
Good idea!
This is just part one of something like a seven-step process. Start to finish, it takes about two hours to make the mash -- a hearty side dish that is a bit too hot and heavy for the summer, but too alluring to wait for fall.

- WHO'S THAT GIRL: A higher education obsessed foodie who is documenting her life in the kitchen. I love to cook delicious, gourmet-style foods for those I love and always welcome a challenge in the kitchen. With that challenge comes an impromptu nature. I tend to avoid following recipes to the exact, so you are not likely to find very many posted here. Being that I am a Libra and am learning to be free in the kitchen, the story always goes, "A pinch of this and a smattering of that!" Thank you for visiting -- and happy reading!

A curious thing: to me all bell peppers (other than green) taste exactly the same. And yet they are more expensive than green. I grew up eating green ones and prefer them (although Peter is of a different mind set - I do nearly all of the cooking, so what goes on the table he has to eat).
