New, simple recipe for T-giving
« on: November 22, 2017, 08:17:53 AM »
I'm eating with friends this year, and I've been asked to bring a green vegetable.

I'm going simple, but what should be really tasty -- roasted broccoli, bacon, and garlic. http://nomnompaleo.com/post/1626061164/roasted-broccoli-bacon-recipe

Dressed with some olive or grape seed oil for roasting, and then a final dressing with either a splash of lemon juice or balsamic vinegar.

Ought to be nice.

I need to try that. I'm one of the weridos that actually likes broccoli (with stuff on it), but I've never roasted it. I roast asparagus all the time.

Don't forget to top it with Fritos and shredded cheese.  [popcorn]

I'm thinking some ground Romano or Parmesan cheese might be a nice finish on it, as well.

Roasted broccoli, brussel sprouts and carrots rank very high on my list of good things.  A balsamic drizzle is a perfect finish.

Oh yeah, but I do prefer roasted broccoli over roasted cauliflower.

Roasted brussels sprouts are also da bomb.

One of my all-time favorite recipes is grill charred leeks that are then finished in a balsamic vinegar braise. Stunningly good. Balsamic vinegar adds so much to vegetables of all stripes, though, that it's a pantry staple.

One of my talents is looking at a recipe and immediately start thinking of ways to change it to make it different/better or just mine.

Throwing Fritos and Cheezwiz on everything is NOT improving things, you pillock!

OK, MOST of the time it's not improving things. :D

It's not a hot dish party until the old ladies show up with a casserole topped with processed cheese food and stale potato chip crumbs.

Throw a handful of chopped up (halves or quarters) figs in with it to make a dish they will ask for every time they see you. ;)

^^^ Ooh.  Do you toss in the figs before cooking, so they roast along with the vegetables?  And are they fresh figs?

I use dried figs because that is what I have and roast them along with the veggies.

Here is the recipe I usually follow along with. As with any recipe this is just a suggestion. ;)

You might like one of the many roasted root vegetable recipes out there.  Many are finished with balsamic vinegar.

Or try a mash of potatoes, fennel, celery root, and apple with some cream.  Super yummy.

Did the roasted broccoli.

It was, I think, quite tasty. I'm keeping that one in my personal repertoire.

I do that as well.  Mildly irritating to SWMBO.
