Coconut oil is a really good option if you can get used to the flavor in this situation. Also, the extra step of melting it in the winter time, makes me more apt to use olive oil.Karahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07405593352652538890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8549939437126288282.post-49107903737925715982010-03-19T22:18:49.576-07:002010-03-19T22:18:49.576-07:00yum...i love roasted vegetables. it is one of the ...yum...i love roasted vegetables. it is one of the only ways i truly enjoy eating vegetables. i love to do broccoli, cauliflower, red onion, asparagus and brussels sprouts. i will have to give the eggplant and beets a try!<br /><br />how do you feel about the olive oil since it is roasting at a high temperature? i have tried a few things with coconut oil but with roasted vegetables i am nervous...mostly because i like the italian taste the olive oil gives and when i use coconut oil it seems too asian.kamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01036681846580798894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8549939437126288282.post-10996604604137153622010-01-23T21:36:48.635-07:002010-01-23T21:36:48.635-07:00I love it, April!

It is fun to find new ways to make/serve the same thing. We roasted vegetables like in this recipe and threw them in a tortilla with eggs and cheese, it was a delicious breakfast burrito for dinner. The quinoa is a great idea, thanks for sharing!Karahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07405593352652538890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8549939437126288282.post-16680708053203038272010-01-23T12:08:15.920-07:002010-01-23T12:08:15.920-07:00This was great.

We actually put these over some quinoa and added a white cheese sauce. It was our main course.Aprilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10105429729952920141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8549939437126288282.post-25065795032877222822010-01-06T07:51:40.277-07:002010-01-06T07:51:40.277-07:00Broccoli? really?

Maybe it's the convection heat, or maybe I just need to roast it alone because it cooks faster. Thanks for the link and the special sauce idea too.Karahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07405593352652538890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8549939437126288282.post-3559124409368611632010-01-05T20:47:35.249-07:002010-01-05T20:47:35.249-07:00Love checking on your site Kara.

Our special sauce is usually vegennaise, tomato paste, stone ground mustard and a little agave. We have also been really liking roasted broccoli lately. My kids will eat it by the platefulls. Check here for the recipe we use (minus the lemon, my kids aren't found of it). http://edennoel2.blogspot.com/2009/03/recipe-best-broccoli.htmlMeganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00306886641273224067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8549939437126288282.post-5534390095970239652010-01-02T09:29:02.546-07:002010-01-02T09:29:02.546-07:00Mmmm, asparagus, I have not tried that one!

I served asparagus roasted on Christmas and was dying at how good it was. I will never steam again!! I can't wait to try this. I'm pretty boring with my selections of veggies because I don't know how to cook them, but I'm excited to try these. Yum!!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01051317165428200566noreply@blogger.com
