Roasted Vegetables

Cooking without a recipe? Roasted vegetables qualify for this approach. Oven roasting vegetables is more of a technique than a step by step recipe. Any of your favorite seasonal vegetables can be oven roasted with a little olive oil, sea salt and fresh herbs if you have them, until brown and a bit crispy on the edges. Squashes, crucifers, asparagus, onions, tomatoes, peppers, the list is endless. Then what? Try serving the vegetables at room temperature with grilled fish or meat, mixed with grains such as farro and quinoa, stuffed in an omelet or topped with a poached egg for a hearty breakfast or brunch, or as a chunky savory non tomato addition to pasta such as orzo. I recently used the roasted vegetables to top a Trader Joe’s cauliflower pizza crust. After I baked the crust and added the roasted vegetables, I garnished it with arugula, shaved parmesan and radish sprouts. Talk about good, quick and easy!
