Enough with the fluff already! 🤨. Maybe just make sugar free pudding per box instructions or get low fat flavored yogurt?
Today we had salad nicoise - tuna, veggies, lite dressing. Great meal for a 100+ day. I’ve been doing a lot of yogurt and cereal meals too. ‘‘Tis the season to avoid heating up the kitchen. The new AC is doing great but no point adding to the work load. Anything that needs heating is done in the microwave.0 -
Hmmm..... I must have wondered into the wrong group!!!
<but kudos do go to the less than one full tub per portion peops>
<I suppose I will also accept kudos for a drawer full of goodies that are still there!>1 -
Kudos to all still battling to stay on the good track!
To the partial tub of yoghurt peoples,
To the searching for the perfect recipe treat peoples,
To the peoples striving to create the perfect weekly menu,
To the peoples who still have a full drawer of treats,
To the peoples who eat well all week until they ordered from the pizza place last night (??!!),
To all the furry peoples 🐶🐱

Still noshing on the roasted-veggie bowl leftovers from the boy’s birthday party.
I wish I had the gumption to make that every week… or an in-house chef who would make it for me 😁2 -
Well, your chef is recovering... slowly... but recovering. And she's a good one too!

I have to see the eye surgeon this morning. A no cooking friend is driving me there and we’re stopping for breakfast along the way at a greasy spoon type place.
But these roasted veggies have gotten into my head. I don’t really want what I’m going to get at that restaurant today 😁3 -
I had a couple of the soon to disappear forever so selling off at half price plus 10% yesterday lean cuisines (450 Cal for both) plus a baggy of cauliflower and onion riced veg 340g/120 Cal.... ready in 6 minutes (as we know super important!) and not terrible 😜
Yes your roasted veg are way ahead 😎😘2 -
The collection of roasted veggies requires a luxury of time that the working person doesn’t have3

Since I won’t be roasting anything other than myself in 100+ degree temperatures- I also resorted to a Lean Cuisine. And a nice salad.4

Maybe I missed it while I was gone, but what was in this roasted veggies mix? Cause it sounds like something I would really enjoy to have on hand!2 -
SO MUCH!!!!! It was a buffet style meal I prepared for my sons birthday:
- wild rice pilaf
- buckwheat
- roasted sweet potatoes with garlic and balsamic
- roasted golden and red beets with olive oil
- roasted carrots (orange, yellow and purple) with honey, nice big chunks of ginger and sesame oil
- roasted broccoli (long stems with florettes on the end) sprinkled with sesame seeds
- roasted spaghetti squash
- roasted cauliflower with cherry tomatoes, olive oil, oregano and thyme
- field greens
- cucumbers with mint
- cherry tomatoes
- radishes (an unexpectedly great addition!)
- pesto type dressing (son loves pesto everyone else not so much)
- lemon/lime tahini dressing
I was so happy with the leftovers. All week the best meals (breakfast mostly)
Because I was making this in a larger quantities, prep and roasting took forever (every vegetable ran through my smaller convection oven on its own) - but if I was to make this a weekly thing I could handle it in probably just a couple of hours.
Maybe maybe3 -
I was really light with the oil in all of the roasted vegetables3

Roasted radishes! So good. They’re completely different from the raw version.1
-
ah! Yooly - my radishes were raw - more like a topping. Ive never roasted a radish! Is that a thing? They are good?!1

Find some nice big radishes and roast them! Amazing. They get sweeter and aren’t peppery at all. Truly a revelation!
Here’s a quick recipe—-
1 pound fresh globe radishes – these are the most available type of radishes
Butter – or you can use ghee, or substitute coconut oil or avocado oil to make this a vegan recipe
Sea salt – any salt will do
Ground black pepper
Garlic cloves – or substitute 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder for the 2 garlic cloves
Dried parsley – or use dried chives or dried dill
Roast at medium high heat for about 20-25 minutes. I use garlic powder as garlic cloves tend to burn or get bitter.2 -
I am going to try this1
