Tomato, Red Pepper and White Bean Casserole is truly a comfort food.  It has a mildly spicy taste that is bold and delicious.  I prepared it as a pan dish by roasting the tomatoes and red pepper together, and I caramelized some white onions in a cast iron skillet.  They helped deliver a juicy flavor that really complimented the spicy taste.

Mom’s Organic is another great place to buy fresh veggies and baking ingredient’s.  Their assortment of fresh produce is outstanding.  Check out my Shop Page for a nice selection of kitchen essentials like slicers, cutting boards, food prep bowls and more.
