Also, I use epicurious.com a lot to find simple recipes for vegetables. And Alice Water's cookbook, Simple Food, has so many great easy peasy recipes for vegetables that require no ingredients except what usually is on hand. And it helped me understand how to cook them so I can wing it more now.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16201524600605746266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-959092383542566379.post-41344004344346550152012-02-23T09:23:17.576-08:002012-02-23T09:23:17.576-08:00I love your family meals feature.

It just sounds kinda strange to me, but we eat tuna, so I'm sure salmon in a can is just as tasty!<br /><br />A sweet friend bought me a subscription to Rachael Ray magazine for Christmas so I've been trying lots of new recipes. Tonight is ratatouille pasta where you roast all the veggies together first then add them to some pasta. (http://www.rachaelraymag.com/recipe/roasted-ratatouille-with-pasta/) It sounds like a good way to get veggies and a main course in one! We'll add some TJ's Italian chicken sausage for protein (and you could probably add lots of red pepper flakes to yours for a kick :)Jessica https://www.blogger.com/profile/08951690197563518054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-959092383542566379.post-86948938717231596022012-02-23T08:17:26.590-08:002012-02-23T08:17:26.590-08:00we've been on a roasting kick in our house lat...we've been on a roasting kick in our house lately - I toss whole or halved (depending if i have time) Brussels sprouts and baby portabella mushrooms in olive oil and salt and throw 'em in the oven for 30 minutes, which gives me enough time to get the rest of the dinner together. I was gonna suggest kale, too, which we sauté in sesame oil.supersojenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04116898674653741115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-959092383542566379.post-25962146129253742852012-02-23T07:53:37.855-08:002012-02-23T07:53:37.855-08:00Yay!
