Yes, I find myself wandering the veggie aisle just trying to find something fun to roast. I’ll roast anything.

I love to roast any kind of veggie. Not only is it easy – you put it in the oven and virtually forget about it – but it brings out the flavor so nicely. My faves are Brussels sprouts and cauliflower, but all work!

I hadn’t thought of using broccoli–that’s a great idea. And despite the bad rap the brussel sprouts get–they are tasty roasted.

roasted pumpkin — and roasted butternut squash — both good on pizza. with your choice of cheeses, really but try a bit of goat cheese with the butternut squash.

I also cut up broccoli stalks into coin sized pieces and roast them with carrots, great in pasta or added to a rice dish. roasted brussel sprouts are very tasty too.

going to have to try that roast pumpkin soup and risotto.

Going meat-free is a matter of creativity around here. It’s also a great way to reinvent old, tired recipes. If you’ve always done spaghetti sauce with Italian sausage–why not eggplant? The roast pumpkin soup sounds so good. I wonder what else roast pumpkin would be good in. There’s something about roasting, huh?

We eat a lot of vegetarian meals as they are just plain cheaper, especially when we are trying to eat organic meats. Roasted veggies are a favorite. I love to roast pumpkin then put extra pieces in the freezer to have the roasted taste in recipes without the time. Roasted pumpkin soup or risotto with blue cheese is always appreciated around here.
