OK, so we probably missed our Meatless Monday, so lets make it today. No problem! Lets look at what we have here starting in the upper left corner.

A great appetizer called Sicilian Eggplant Caponata. A great use of the eggplant that is coming into season now. Eat this hot, warm or cold. It makes not real difference. Serve it on some Baguette Rounds.

And for a main dish, try Potato-Leek Soup. What? Another Potato/Leek Soup? Yes! But this one has no bacon, ham or other meat in it. It is thick and rich with no cream! Eat it hot or cold.

And finally, that green “stuff”. A great vegetable that is usually overlooked. Too bad! Really it is good. Try this really easy to prepare Chard. Really a wonderful compliment to the rest of the dinner. Full of vitamins and other good stuff and much like spinach, but I actually like it better. But, you be the judge. Let us know how you liked these. Cheers!
