  • Cut large onion into 1/2" slices.
  • Stem and seed large red pepper, cut into 1 1/2" chunks.
  • Toss vegetables with 3 T. olive oil, thyme, and 1 T. Old Bay seasoning. Place on oiled baking sheet. Bake 25-30 minutes or until vegetables are tender and brown, stirring halfway through.

  1. I used this recipe for inspiration as I can't have onions and not really into premixed fish seasoning. I substituted green bell peppers for the onions and used various spices including the thyme. This was a really wonderful, healthy meal. Fairly easy to prepare and a snap to cleanup as well. Thanks!

I love to cook. I can't wait for the day when my husband and I move from our apartment into a fully loaded professional kitchen (with a house around it!!). I work in the health and wellness field and so try to balance my love of rich chocolate (especially bittersweet) and other desserts with light entrees featuring plenty of lean protein and vegetables. I collect more recipes than I have time to make in a lifetime (and am always on the lookout for more!). For fun, when I'm not searching for recipes (God bless the internet, epicurious and recipezaar), I'm spending time with my husband and on the road making weekend trips to visit family in neighboring states (and trying out recipes on them - gotta take advantage of having more people around!). Pet peeves? Fast food and people who say they don't have time to cook with their family and make nutritious meals, but spend 3 hours watching tv instead.... rant :|
