It’s strange to cook for one when you used to cook for two, four, or more. This week I am home alone. Hallelujah! My husband is in New York and the boys are in school. I was content eating my quick bruschetta in peace and quiet. 
Purple vegetables are over rated, overly priced and not that flavorful as their plain sisters and brothers. I am mostly referring to purple carrots, purple cauliflower and purple tomatoes.
My kind of meals; quick, light and healthy. The pesto is homemade but feel free to use store-bought.
