Welcome to Luggage and Ladle

Welcome

Welcome to Luggage & Ladle For years, this blog was simply a place to collect and share favorite recipes. What started as a personal recipe archive gradually became something more. As my husband Blake and I traveled, I realized many of our adventures had one thing in common: food. We plan our travels around where to eat. Long before we book a hotel or decide which attractions to visit, we're researching local specialties, hidden gems, neighborhood restaurants, bakeries, markets, and can't-miss meals. Some of our favorite travel memories aren't landmarks or attractions. They're meals shared around a table. Many of the recipes you'll find here have a story behind them. Some are family favorites. Others were inspired by memorable meals we discovered while traveling and couldn't wait to recreate at home. That's how Luggage & Ladle was born.

Roasted Red Pepper and Feta Dip

My fascination with soup is almost equaled by our fascination with dip.  While the Man prefers a hearty, meaty, cheesy concoction which generally includes bacon...

Roasted Red Pepper and Feta Dip

4 Large Red Bell Peppers
4 Cloves of Garlic
8 ounces Feta Cheese
1/4 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Roast red bell peppers either in the oven under broiler or over open flame until charred on all sides.  Place in a paper bag and allow to steam for about 10 minutes.  Once they are cool enough to handle, remove the skin, stem and seeds.  Cut in to quarters and add to food processor along with garlic, EVOO and feta cheese. Process until smooth.

It is that simple.  I serve it with pita chips.
