Nothing worse then having a cold in the summer! Try yoga!

I've been sick for the past couple days, hence why I haven't really added anything on here recently.  So I thought since I couldn't really function well enough to add new recipe ideas, I'd talk about my current events and actually open up to more topics!  I've been sick since Thursday and nothing I take ever really shadows the discomfort like the labels tell you.  At least not for me any ways.

Roasted Peppers

Skinning peppers in this fashion is used for various recipes. It also adds a flavor changer that is more then subtle and very delicious. Here are some simple steps to follow for amazing roasted peppers.  After you have roasted the peppers you quickly add them to a closable container and seal them in so that the steam will help lift the skins off the peppers. You don't have to Roast them.  You can do the same thing in a heavy pan on the stove, over open flame like a grill, or under the broiler.  Just make sure to keep a tongs available and keep turning watching as the skin blisters but doesn't burn through the peppers.

I do the same to potato fries.
