<\/a><\/p>\nMany people say they do not like the taste of vegetables, but I ask if they have ever had them roasted. By cooking the vegetables with high oven heat, it brings out a different flavor. \u00a0Steamed broccoli and cauliflower smell cruciferous when cooking.\u00a0 When they are roasted, they take on a different flavor\u2014milder and roasted.<\/p>\n
Roasting vegetables is very easy. Clean your veggies with cold water, and cut them into all the same size pieces.\u00a0 This is important, as an assortment of sizes will cause them to cook at different levels\u2014and some will be overcooked, and others hard.<\/p>\n Place them on a lipped cookie sheet and sprinkle a little (1-2 teaspoons) canola oil and seasoning over the top. I love garlic and a little parmesan.\u00a0 It doesn\u2019t take much.\u00a0 If you use a flat cookie sheet, the oil will drip off into the oven and start a fire.\u00a0 Believe me\u2014I know!\u00a0 Also, use canola instead of olive oil, as it can take the high temperatures.<\/p>\n Pre-heat your oven to 425\u00b0 F and roast until done\u2014or about 45-60 minutes. Do not over fill your pan\u2014give the vegetables room to roast.\u00a0 Serve immediately, or consume the leftovers cold the next day for lunch!\u00a0\u00a0 I add them to leftover protein for a wonderful lunch!<\/p>\n Winter vegetables are extremely high in vitamins A and C. They are low in sodium, fat and cholesterol free.\u00a0 They are low in calories and a source of fiber.\u00a0 I advise you head to your local grocery store and purchase a variety of fall vegetables now to get started\u2014I hear it\u2019s going to be cool this weekend!<\/p>\n Fall vegetables are in season now, and are inexpensive. Squash, rutabagas, turnips, sweet potatoes, beets, etc\u2026 With the temperature being cooler, I look forward to dusting off the cobwebs in my oven and roasting a cornucopia of vegetables for dinner.
