Sometimes I think we need to find a few new vegetables. When I go to the fancy grocery store nearby, I always think, "Is this it?" I so agree with you about the seventies and veggies in a can. I think the first time I ate fresh carrots (with Ranch dressing - gulp!) was when I was in my early twenties. Before that, we ate carrots, but they are so much tastier with thick dip. I know. I'm hopeless.Pom Pomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01524994024698986829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8626107370797678390.post-56236625435575323692011-11-21T16:10:37.959-08:002011-11-21T16:10:37.959-08:00I am not a fan of beets, but I saw a recipe for a ...I am not a fan of beets, but I saw a recipe for a whole roasted onion with melted "fancy" cheese of your choice.

How could you forget that you have invited husband's colleague from work for dinner until he turns up at front door?

Latest discovery is roasted cauliflower.<br />But chopping [into largish pieces] ALL the veg** lurking in the bottom of the fridge, drizzling with olive oil and a shake of salt and pepper, and a sprig of rosemary. Roast THAT and you have supper fit for a King.<br />Blessings xx<br />**not the wilted lettuce or limp cucumber though.Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13494078135251214182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8626107370797678390.post-62635761715288967892011-11-20T21:41:57.843-08:002011-11-20T21:41:57.843-08:00So I had to google rutabaga to find out it is a sw...So I had to google rutabaga to find out it is a swede. Good in soups ;)<br /><br />My parents finally gave up making me eat beetroot when I was 8. I remember it. We were living in Ballarat for a couple of months before going overseas and they finally realised I REALLY don't like them and that they were wasting things they love on someone who couldn't stand them. I've yet to overcome my dislike to have a go at fresh beets roasted.<br /><br />My Mum did parsnip while we were with them a few weeks back. She also par-boiled and then roasted them. Oh. My. Goodness. We all fought over Mr Busy's discarded parsnips!<br /><br />Our lastest trial was fresh asparagus because it was a freebie. Not too bad - but I wouldn't spend $9/kg on them.Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07511855282323456046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8626107370797678390.post-423478332595907652011-11-20T20:13:13.906-08:002011-11-20T20:13:13.906-08:00If you haven't roasted brussels sprouts yet, a...If you haven't roasted brussels sprouts yet, add them to your list.

Ugh. We ate all the same ones you did. We did, however, sometimes have fresh garden carrots, tomatoes and such later on when Dad began to garden. <br /><br />I did not like spinach (canned), asparagus (canned) or squash, but now I love them own in totally different preparation methods. I ADORE roasted veggies -- all kinds-- but I have never had roasted beets. I will wait to hear how you do it and how they taste. I like beets, but I am the only one in the house who does so I would have to eat a whole batch myself.<br /><br />Invite me to supper and I'll try yours!<br />JodyGumbo Lilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02747138637571716591noreply@blogger.com
