Are you roasting your veggies yet?
If not, you should be. There are so much better than steaming or boiling could ever be.
I’ll be honest. I am NOT a huge veggie lover. I never have been. I was that kid who could barely choke down the two green beans my mom put on my plate.
Since then, I’ve improved, but a lot of it is due to simply figuring out how to make vegetables taste better (without slathering them with cheese… which no doubt would taste better). One of the ways that is almost foolproof is roasting them. Roasting imparts a sweet/smoky taste you will never get with steamed veggies.
If you haven’t tried it yet you really should give it a go.
The “recipe” below is more of a method. You can try all sorts of veggies roasted, potatoes, sweet potatoes, green beans, squashes. You also can vary the seasoning (like try drizzling on a little balsamic vinegar, I’m sure that would be great!)
