Hi Deb;
I'm going to try and get theses last three recipes in here, so you can retrieve them before this section gets archived. I've had nothing but interruptions all day.
ROASTED VEGETABLE SALAD
Serve this salad warm or cold. the roasted garlic has a mild nutty taste, quite different from that of raw garlic, so don't hesitate to use the entire head.

1 med. red sweet pepper, sliced the same as the green
1 med. sweet yellow pepper, sliced the same.
