Spanish Roasted Potatoes with Tomato Sauce
I am always looking for new ways to make potatoes. "Patatas Bravas" is a classic Spanish tapas dish and is served in bars all over Spain. The sauce has a slight bite from the Tabasco, hence the name bravas, which means "fierce." They are also called "angry" potatoes. You can serve them with toothpicks as a snack or as a side dish.

Roasted Balsamic Potatoes, Onions and Broccoli
Some of my best recipes have come off the packages of products. This one I found on the side of a bag of Pacific Gold Baby White Potatoes. It was one of those things that I happened to have all the ingredients and I have a daughter whose is mad keen for balsamic soaked anything. It goes well with Uncle Russell’s Flank Steak.

Spicy Caramelized Cauliflower with Raisins
Golden raisins, called "sultanas" outside the US, are made from the sultana grape, treated with sulfur dioxide to maintain their golden color, and dried either on the vine or on special drying racks. I love using golden raisins in salad and a variety of sautéed dishes. In the past, I have made Spinach with Raisins & Pine Nuts, Sautéed Brussels Sprouts With Bacon & Golden Raisins, and Swiss Chard with Golden Raisins & Almonds. Last night I used cauliflower. Adding red pepper flakes really compliments the sweetness of the raisins.

Eggplant Pizzas
My husband and I had this at a local French restaurant. What a fantastic appetizer! I could have eaten several plates of it. I took this dreadful picture at the restaurant. The chef came out of the kitchen and was watching me. I told him I was in love with his wonderful eggplant pizza. This recipe is loosely based Julie Child’s version.

Asparagus Gratinato with Grana Padano
Asparagus Gratinato with Grana Padano is delicious and easy to roast. Grana Padano is one of the most popular cheeses of Italy. The name comes from the noun grana, which refers to the distinctively grainy texture of the cheese. Though similar to Parmigiano Reggiano, Grana Padano is inexpensive because areas producing the cheese are bigger. Grana is less crumbly, milder and less complex than Parmigiano Reggiano.

Broccoli Rabe with Caramelized Onions
Broccoli Rabe or Rapini is a vegetable. The edible parts are the leaves, buds, and stems. The buds somewhat resemble broccoli, but do not form a large head. If you have leftovers, use it the next day stuffed into a baked potato, put it on pizza, or add it to a sandwich.

Roasted Broccoli with Pepperoni Crumbs
This Roasted Broccoli with Pepperoni Crumbs is an absolutely addictive side dish! Broccoli seems to be a popular vegetable in our house. I basically always roast vegetables. This bread crumb mixture adds extra crunch and flavor, though it takes it away from being vegetarian. There are some many other uses for this fabulous crunchy mixture. I even threw it on our baked potatoes. I could even see sprinkling it over salads.
