Veggie chili

It's been crazy cold here in LA the last week, so what better way to warm up than will a bowl of hot chilli? And even better, in a bread bowl?

I followed this recipe from SparkPeople to the tee, but poured the chili into a bread bowl.
Gimme some hot chocolate and a pair of slippers and I'm all set!

Caprese skewers

I hope everyone's Thanksgiving dinner was fantastic!

I served the usual - turkey, corn, carrots, etc - but I also threw in a little Italian with parmasan-crusted green beans, my harvest lasagna and for an appetizer - caprese skewers.

Couldn't be easier, or tastier:
Grape tomatoes
Fresh basil leaves
Mozzarella balls

All impaled on a long toothpick. A caprese salad in one yummy bite.
