This delicious Beef & Barley Soup can be prepared with no sweat using slow cooker - just dump everything in it, no frequent check necessary and ready by the set time! That's what I did for hubby's BBQ last week when energy level is low (sorry if anyone been waiting this long for the recipe).

Grilled Brinjal-Tomato Bruschetta
One long French Loaf usually isn't enough for four of us if I make this for breakfast.... My two boys just love it very much. The brinjal and tomato are flavored with garlic, olive oil and balsamic sauce and then sprinkled with chopped fresh basil leaves.... very tasty and nice aroma. Apart from serving for breakfast, this certainly will be a big hit if served as starters during a party.
