grilled veggie antipasto

July 27, 2017 by Lovoni | Leave a Comment

Whether you’re cooking for a crowd or want to be able to throw together a quick evening meal, you can’t go wrong with a colorful plate of antitpasto, especially with the abundance of eggplants, zucchini & peppers we currently have in the northern hemisphere. Grilled eggplant, zucchini & peppers marinated in a balsamic & basil dressing & served with some creamy, buffalo mozzarella & salty prosciutto.

Add whatever else takes your fancy: salami, olives, artichokes or sundried tomatoes.

I find there’s always something so unhurried with sharing heaping plates of food to pick at. Most days I’d prefer to graze on something like antipasto than sit down to a full meal.

And of course if there happens to be any leftovers, chop them up & throw them into a salad or add them to pasta or a grilled sandwich. I know I harp on about make-ahead food but with good reason, it makes life easier, especially when you’re entertaining. And really, who wouldn’t appreciate things easier, especially when it comes to cooking. Cheers,

Lovoni

Ingredients
  1. 2 medium eggplant
  2. 3 medium zucchini
  3. 3 large red or multi-colored bell peppers (capsicum)
  4. olive oil, for drizzling
  5. salt & freshly ground pepper
  6. 2 to 3 balls fresh mozzarella (I love buffalo mozzarella)
  7. 12 to 18 thin slices prosciutto
  8. extra basil leaves for garnish
  9. BALSAMIC MARINADE
  10. 1/2 cup olive oil
  11. 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
  12. 1/3 cup coarsely chopped basil leaves
  13. 2 large garlic cloves, minced
  14. pinch of salt & freshly ground pepper
Instructions
  1. To make the marinade: Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl or shallow dish; set aside.
  2. Cut eggplant & zucchini lengthways into thin slices. Trim peppers & remove seeds & membranes. Cut in half or thirds. Drizzle veggies with a little oil & sprinkle with salt & pepper.
  3. Preheat a barbecue to high. Cook eggplant & zucchini in batches on greased grill for about 3 minutes per side, until grill marks appear. For the peppers, cook them 8 to 10 minutes, skin side down, until skin blackens & blisters, do not turn peppers.
  4. Cut eggplant & zucchini into 2 to 3-inch (5 to 7.5cm) pieces. Add to marinade. Cut peppers into 1-inch (2.5cm) strips add to marinade. Stir veggies ensuring they’re all coated in the marinade. Cover & chill for 6 hours or overnight, stirring occasionally.
  5. To serve: Drain veggies from marinade & them on a platter. Tear mozzarella into pieces & add to platter. Loosely roll each slice of prosciutto & add to platter. Serves 6.

Some foods’ appearance beguiles the taste & text Some foods’ appearance beguiles the taste & texture. This is one such dish. Super Crunchy Herb, Lemon & Parmesan Chicken served with a lemony, garlic, caper butter. Breaded chicken & fish are favorites of mine. Served simply with some sea salt & lemon wedges or with this lemony butter sauce. Serve with creamy mashed potato & steamed green beans & call me; I’ll be there! I’ll even bring wine xo

Happy March 1st. The start to a new month needs ca Happy March 1st. The start to a new month needs cake - One Bowl Banana Cake with Caramel Drizzle. There’s something warm & comforting about this cake, especially today. Spring briefly revealed herself to us this past weekend & then she slinked back into the abyss.  Soon. 
Meanwhile I’m still wanting warm & comforting foods making use of the seasonal foods. What are you excited to make as the seasons transition?

Oxtail in Red Wine: when I first added this to my Oxtail in Red Wine: when I first added this to my website & shared it on Pinterest, I almost blew up my Pinterest account. It was so popular. I was shocked. Really I made it for my husband a couple of times and the recipe was so nice I had to share. I thought here the words “ox tail” might turn people away. I was wrong, quite the opposite. Nowadays it’s beef tail not ox because oxen numbers, as far as I’m aware, have been on the decline and is the reason for beef tails being used but they’re still referred to as ox tail.
