Looking at the title I was obviously in a red bell pepper mood eh?
I have to say I have been looking forward to these two recipes all week from the May Bon Appetit and they did not disappoint.
First, the Roasted Sweet Potato Salad with Red Bell Pepper had some interesting flavor combinations of roasted sweet potatoes, cilantro, shallots, jalapeno, rice wine vinegar, green onions and obviously red bell pepper. I did not have a fresh red bell pepper on hand so used a roasted red pepper from the jar. The recipe doesn’t call for it but I kind of mashed this all together when it was still warm and the flavor was excellent and sooooo easy to make.
The Open-Face Crab Burgers with Red Pepper Dressing were just as easy to make. You will see in the recipe the sauce mimics what goes into the actual burger so you can easily set out two bowls and dump the same ingredient into each bowl as you go. While they melded in the fridge I made the salad and simply grilled and served.
Give them a try, I think you will looooove these two!
Thanks so much for letting me try the salad- delish! And I can’t wait to try the crab cakes, I’m still on the hunt for the perfect recipe
Open-Face Crab Burgers, heaven on earth, a keeper this one, thanks!
Let’s be honest – who ISN’T in the mood for eating your body weight in red bell peppers at any given moment? I know I am.
This is my favorite…
