The Blubber Battle: Oven Roasted Veggies Recipe
This is sooooo good and easy. I’m a closet finicky eater so I like that I can alter this Tosca Reno recipe by taking out some of the veggies that I don’t like. (i.e. beets) You of course could add more vegetables to this dish.
“Oven roasting brings out the flavor of vegetables like no other cooking method. The best part of oven roasting is its ease. ”

That sounds so good! Yum!
It is really, really good. Even tastes great the next day too! This is the kind of “diet food” that I can get behind. 🙂
