I love supporting my local businesses and one of the best in my NYC neighborhood is Milano Market, which is an Italian market located on East 89th & 3rd Avenue. I recently picked up smoked mozzarella sandwich with broccoli rabe & roasted peppers on focaccia bread and mini cannolis, which I decided to serve along with sweet potato chips and homemade sausage, lentil & spinach soup.

1/2 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 container of Trader Joe’s Mirepoix
