Oven Roasted Tomatoes with Balsamic Glaze / Weekly Recap

January 27, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 20 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Let me tell you I had quite a Friday!  I went to get my hair done and I asked for sun beachy blonde, like a light golden brown and she colored my hair brown!  AHHH!!!  We totally both had different ideas in our head.  After she did my hair, I practically cried and said where’s the blonde?  She said my hair will lighten up, but that didn’t satisfy me, so I had her put some blonde streaks in my hair.  Not sure how I feel about my hair.  I will tell you, I am a natural brunette  but I look so much better as a blonde.  Brown makes me look so washed out.  We shall see how it goes.  Don’t you hate when things like this happen?  I should have just said touch up my roots.  Sigh….  Well anyway, I had to get that out, I feel so much better, thanks for listening!  Now for today’s recipe.  I have such a simple side dish, but it’s so full of flavor!

Oven Roasted Tomatoes

I had left over tomatoes and my idea was large sliced tomatoes, but when I grabbed a tomato, they were starting to get a little to icky to eat!  Yucky!!  So I grabbed my grape tomatoes, and decided to make the dish a little different!  Either large sliced tomatoes or little ones this is a fantastic dish and goes great on top of bread.

Oven Roasted Tomatoes


All I did was take grape tomatoes, sliced them in half, added a bit of olive oil, salt, pepper and basil and a dash of Parmesan Cheese.  Bake for 10 minutes until the tomatoes are soft, not split.  I topped these little guys with some Balsamic Glaze that I bought from Trader Joe’s.  You can use balsamic vinegar or even a balsamic dressing.  Oh so good!  I love tomatoes with basil and balsamic!  It’s a summer dish, but I think it’s good anytime of the year!  Their is something about the flavor when you roast a tomato, it’s so robust and juicy!  Mmmmm, I love it!!!  I served them as a side dish with my grilled filet mignon.

Oven Roasted Tomatoes

Here is this weeks weekly recap:

Sunday:  Pineapple Square Bars  – This is an indulgent treat that I made for my Husband.  It’s simply amazing and so old school!  I love this recipe!  I didn’t healthify it because it wasn’t the thing to do!  This is my Husbands Mom’s recipe and in respect to her and her family I didn’t make any modifications.

pineapple bars

Monday:  Birthday Cake Cashew Butter  – This is such a fun nut butter and would be great to give to a nut butter fan on their birthday!  I have been enjoying spooning it daily!  It’s sweet and really does taste like cake batter, but a little more healthier!  🙂

Cashew Cake Batter

Tuesday:  Loaded Potato Skins – Oh my gosh these are so good!  Crazy good!  These ended up being our dinner last Sunday!  I was making them for an appetizer, while my Husband watched the big game, but we ended up eating them all and we were just to full for dinner!  Such a great appetizer and low-calorie too!!

Loaded Potato Skins

Wednesday:  Individual Baked Oatmeal Cups – I love these!  I have had one for breakfast everyday this week!  I served it with a side of Greek Yogurt!  So perfect and healthy!!  I love that you can top them anyway you like!!  My favorite is the pomegranate and chocolate!!  I have had a major sweet tooth lately, so be prepared!!

Individual Oatmeal Cups

Thursday:  National Peanut Butter Day and a KIND Giveaway! – No recipe this day but a wonderful giveaway!  Thank you for telling me about the Groupon!  Sure enough I got the offer the next day!  I bought two and ordered the 6 packs of granola!  You know I need to feed that granola addiction of mine. It’s funny but Friday night my Husband said he took some of my granola bars to work.  I said granola bars?  He said ya these, and they were my KIND Bars.  He said he loved them. He took four out of the eight that I have!  I’m glad he liked them, which surprised me because he doesn’t like those kind of bars!  Now I need to order more for him!  So don’t forget to enter my giveaway.  Today is the last day!

KIND Healthy Snacks

Friday:  Snickerdoodle Scones – These scones are amazing and just under 100 calories.  I was really surprised, but my co-workers loved them!  I brought them out in the morning and they were gone by 10am.  I’m really proud of the modifications I made in them to healthify them.  I will be sure to make them again!  My one friend said they would be really good with apples in them!  I thought what a fantastic idea!  I think I’ll take her advice and make them again that way!!  Thanks Nicole!

Snickerdoodles Scones

Saturday:  BBQ Pork Wontons – I have to apologize if that post seemed confusing.  My Husband read it pror to me posting and he said it sounded fine.  It was one of those days where my head was all over the place.  The wontons are a great use for left over BBQ Pork!  I am telling you they taste so good with the mango salsa on top!  Perfect for the Super Bowl or just as a nice appetizer

BBQ Pork Wonton's

Well that’s it for this week!   Wow, my recipes have been all over the place.  My goal for this year is to use what I have!  I have been spending so much on groceries that I decided I can’t let good food go to waste!  I think I need to do some better planning!  🙂  So with that your getting odds and end recipes!

Have a great Sunday!!

Toodles,

Jennifer

P.S.  This weeks craving is:  Black Bean Brownies!  These are crazy good!! I can’t get over how good they are!!!  I loved telling people after they had one that they were made with black beans!  I laugh and laugh!!  he he  Try it, it may surprise you!  Believe me I was skeptical, but I love them and so does my chocolate fanatic family!

    This exact thing happened to me once, I asked my hairdresser to dye my hair brown, and it came out BLACK! There was nothing we could do 🙁 I am sure your hair looks great, its always nice to change things up now and then! I am still so excited to make those cute oatmeal cups one of these days…

      Oh, my hair doesn’t look good! I made another appointment on Tuesday. She thought I wanted Ambre style, which is one color on the bottom and one on top. My hair is all brown and the last 3″ or so are blonde. Not cool!! I asked for a few streaks of blonde, and I don’t like it!! I am hoping she can do something. Wow, black hair! At least with browns and blacks they lighten up. 🙂

    and p.s. how does she get from sun beachy blond to brown?! Girl I have had that happen and it’s the worst! It’s not like you can just change it the next day. It’s a gradual phase out/phase in. So sorry. Ugh. Seriously, that is awful. Been there.

One of the things I added was my new bedding that I got from @lushdecorhome. Let me tell you, it is so luxurious. This is the 3 piece Belgian Flax Linen Rich Cotton Blend Bedspread. It is so soft and gets softer with each wash. 
💕
I have a tall bed and the ruffles just reaches the floor. The bedding is filled with cotton that gives the bedspread such a comfy feel. The bedspread is perfect for the summer, as it is lightweight, but warm enough to keep you cozy in the winter. The set comes with two pillow shams and the bedspread. It also comes in 4 colors.

I love my new bedding, it’s so feminine and simply beautiful. I couldn’t be happier. Swipe the photo to see how happy Sully is on the bedding.

Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime ta Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime tablescape with @JCPenney + #AllAtJCP + #sponsored +#ShoppingIsBack but you know how I love still photos better. I think you can really see the details of the decor.

💛

I am loving how simple, fresh and light my tablescape feels. It’s the perfect look I was going for. When the idea came for creating a tablescape, I was unclear of what direction I was going for until I shopped at JCPenney. I walked around the decor department and was completely inspired. They had so many styles and colors that would inspire you too.

💛

I saved a highlight of my shopping trip to JCPenney. You must check it out. I’ll be honest, I was blown away by the styles, quality and prices of there store. I will be shopping there quite frequently and you know I will take you along my journey.

💛

What is the style of your home?

💛

PS. Everything on my table is from JCPenney and it is the Linden Street Collection.

My inspiration was my new pillows that I got from @downlitebedding. The name of the pillow says it all “Ahhhhhmazing™ down alternative pillow” and they are amazing.

The pillows are so soft, plush and are hypoallergenic. They are easily molded so you position your neck, head and arms. The pillows are also washable and OEKO-TEX® Certified Textiles Are Certified Free Of Harmful Chemicals.

Hello! I have to tell you that I love summer. It’s my favorite season. I love the sun, hot weather, shirts and flip flops. I could just spend all day outside.
🌻
One of my favorite things to do in the summer besides gardening is going to the Farmers Market. There is something about the atmosphere with people walking around with bags in hand, the smell of kettle corn and everyone is so happy. 
🌻
Besides the atmosphere, you can’t beat the freshly grown produce. It’s mind blowing how different it tastes, then what you get in the store. You almost forget what a strawberry is suppose to taste like until have it at the Farmers Market. Plus you are supporting your community. It’s a good feeling all around. 
🌻
I highly recommend going to the Farmers Market and pick up so corn. Soooooo good!! Stock up on your fruits and veggies and freeze it for winter.

I’m sharing with you my last photo of my peonies. I’m so sad that they didn’t last. I got about 6 days from them. I guess that’s means I need to go to Trader Joe’s and get more before peony season is over.

Do you have any summer vacation scheduled this year?

Happy Monday!! It’s back to work for me. I’ll Happy Monday!! It’s back to work for me. I’ll be counting down to my next vacation, which will be the week of the 4th of July. I will tell you, it felt so nice not having any plans and doing work in the garden.
🌻
This weekend I finally made it to the Farmers Market and I picked up these amazing sunflowers. They are such a happy flower. 
🌻
When I got them, I couldn’t resist doing a flowers in the sink photo. I haven’t done one of these since Fall. Now I may have to go back to the Farmers Market next weekend because they had so many flowers and most were only $4.00 a bundle.

Happy Friday! My vacation is officially over and I Happy Friday! My vacation is officially over and I pretty much spent the whole week working in my garden, so I apologize for all the flower photos. 
🌸
This is a view of my fenced in garden. The flowers on the left are zinnias, and next to them is beardtongue and in the background, butterfly bush.  In about a month or so, this background will pop with lots of orange from my Mexican sunflower and yellow from the black eyed susan. I just hope my black eyed susan’s make it. They are struggling. 
🌸
I have to say I have been enjoying working in the garden. It’s therapy to me. It just makes me feel good to sit back and see all your hard work start to bloom. I can’t wait to see what the garden looks like a month.
🌸
What do you like to do that you consider your therapy?
