Truthfully, we don’t often cook green cabbage in our house. Sometimes we buy a bag of cole slaw mix, but I rarely buy a head of green cabbage. So this week I went out on a limb at the grocery store in the spirit of trying new things. Roasting seemed like the best cooking method…

Crispy Cauliflower with Salsa Verde
Crispy cauliflower with fresh Salsa Verde is a yummy side dish perfect for a normal week night or for serving to guests. A fresh salsa verde made from chopped herbs, shallots, lemon juice, and olive oil is such an easy trick for dressing up your average plate of roasted veggies. The cauliflower gets a slightly…
Chili Lemon Broccoli with White Beans
I’m very into simple flavors right now, especially when it comes to enhancing every day roasted vegetables with new flavor combinations (see my maple balsamic sprouts here). This broccoli would have been perfectly delicious just roasted in the oven with the classic olive oil and salt, but this time we decided to kick it up…
Maple Balsamic Roasted Vegetables
We were recently in Vancouver for a vacation with hubs’ family — it was amazing! go there now! — and I visited a fancy olive oil store in Victoria. If you’ve ever been into one of these specialized olive oil shops, you know that they typically have tons of flavors to sample. I must’ve tried…
Garlic Roasted Radishes and Asparagus
Did you know that roasting radishes makes them way sweeter and removes their famous sharp bite? Neither did I until I had an abundance of radishes and started experimenting with ways to cook them! They mellow out and caramelize in the oven, proving my hypothesis that roasted veggies = best veggies!!! I roasted my radishes…
Roasted Summer Squash and Red Potatoes
We roast vegetables a lot. It’s our favorite way to cook up many different veggies at once, and it’s so simple and delicious that it’s become our go-to dinner. I wanted to shake things up a bit, so we did a new combo of veggies, summer squash and red potatoes, and added a breadcrumb coating…
Balsamic Cabbage Steaks
The color of red cabbage is one of my favorite colors. It’s so vibrant and rich that it’s almost hard to believe it exists in nature. It becomes even deeper and more beautiful after roasting in the oven, like these balsamic cabbage steaks. There’s something totally magical about how heat and oil/vinegar can transform a…
Butternut Squash Pizza
Roasted butternut squash. Sweet caramelized red onion. Balsamic vinegar glaze. Fresh greens….all on a PIZZA!? No, I’m not kidding. And yes, you need to make this! We had a version of this pizza when we were visiting friends for New Year’s and I’ve been meaning to replicate it ever since because it was so easy…
Broccoli Tacos
Some people might think I’m crazy for taking such a sacred thing as a taco and filling it with….broccoli? I think broccoli sometimes gets a bad reputation, but it’s actually one of my favorite vegetables when cooked correctly. I absolutely love broccoli when it’s roasted and steamed (Chinese restaurants always steam it perfectly, am I…
Sage Brown Butter Turnip Wedges
I ❤ Turnips! I never really eat them but when I do, I’m always surprised at how much I enjoy them. They are super easy to roast up in the oven and are a great alternative to potatoes, and have a touch more flavor and bite than potatoes. In this recipe, the turnip wedges work…
