Though these colorful vegetables are available year-round, bell peppers are at their best and brightest from late summer to early fall. In this dish, you’ll take advantage of the harvest and make peperonata, a traditional Italian dish. It’s a simple, versatile preparation that lets the peppers truly shine. In our version, you’ll be using not only the standard red bells, but also an heirloom variety to add color and deepen the flavor.

We are still loving life on the beach. Our resort is really nice. Our room has a full kitchen, living area, bedroom with a king bed and jacuzzi tub! There are also four pools, hot tubs, a great fitness center, and great access to the ocean. We are having fun with Josh’s brother, Ben, and his wife, Whitney. We don’t leave until Thursday! It’s nice not having a schedule. I think I could get used to this beach bum thing, ha!
