Roasted Fall Vegetables
Ingredients
2 small apples
2 carrots
1 spaghetti squash
2 sweet potatoes
Marinade
2 T extra virgin olive oil
1/2 t ginger paste
1.2 t garlic paste
1 t all spice
1 t nutmeg
pinch of salt
Directions:
- Dice all vegetables and fruit in bite size pieces
- Set aside.
- Mix together all the ingredients of the marinade and put over the vegetables.
- Place in refrigerator until ready to roast.
- Set your oven to 400 F and roast for 40 minutes.
Oven times to vary so check on them about every 10 minutes or so. For a side dish I had some fresh spinach that was going wilty so I sauteed it up. I heated olive oil, basil and garlic salt and then added the spinach. May I dare say this was one of the best dinners I have ever had! Easy and quick and totally made it up. Next time you go into your produce section of your local grocery store I dare you to pick out some of your favorite vegetables and create a dish at home!
Excuse the yellow light. My shoebox apartment doesn't like my photography.
I am trying to soak up as much Fall as I can before it is over in a blink of an eye. Fall gets only a month of time to shine so you must get all the festive activities in as you can so my boyfriend and I spent Sunday afternoon doing the most Halloween activity of all.
And Sophie helped
You have to have pumpkin beer when carving pumpkins. It is a rule.
I didn't let these bad boys go to waste.
Shortly after our pumpkin carving extravaganza. I washed the pumpkin seeds.
