Roasted Cauliflower, Tomatoes, and Pepperoni Pasta

Cauliflower seems to have made a come back. Try this Roasted Cauliflower, Tomatoes, and Pepperoni Pasta. I love roasted cauliflower. I have many cauliflower recipes on this blog. You can use short pasta, such as penne or fusilli for this recipe, though I was told by my Italian opera singer friend that short pasta is for peasants!

Delicata Squash Stuffed with Sausage, Sage, Shallots, White Beans & Parmesan

Delicata Squash Stuffed with Sausage, Sage, Shallots, White Beans & Parmesan

Delicata Squash Stuffed with Sausage, Sage, Shallots & White Beans is a great dinner. Having grown up in all four seasons, I always feel cheated living in Southern California. Over the long weekend, on our way back from the beach we stopped at a wonderful pumpkin patch. I usually buy acorn squash and make Acorn Squash with Sausage, Peas & Onions, but I decided to branch out and try the Delicata squash.

Roasted Broccoli Florets with Toasted Breadcrumb Gremolata

Roasted Broccoli Florets with Toasted Breadcrumb Gremolata is a traditional accompaniment to the Milanese braised veal shank dish osso buco alla. Broccoli seems to be the only vegetable that everyone in the family will eat. Because of this, I tend to make it a lot. I found this recipe in an old Bon Appetit. Of course, the use of lemon piqued my interest! Gremolata or gremolada is a chopped herb condiment typically made of lemon zest, garlic, and parsley.

Roasted Beets with Goat Cheese

Roasted Beets with Goat Cheese is a wonderful appetizer or side dish! I have been known to wake up in the morning and eat pickled beets. Yes, I know I'm weird! My favorite being Pickled Beets and Eggs. Beets are high in many vitamins and minerals, and the juice from red beets has been actually shown to reduce high blood pressure. Beets help cleanse your liver, boost your sex drive (nature's Viagra), combat depression, relaxes the mind, contributes to a sense of well being and the list goes on.

Fried (or Roasted) Cauliflower with Fish Sauce Vinaigrette

My husband was listening to The Splendid Table on NPR and heard about this recipe. I said I would make it for him. It's a tad complicated, but he was thrilled with the results and said that he could pour the Vinaigrette on just about anything. The puffed rice in this recipe is Rice Krispies cereal, which are seasoned with Japanese shichimi togarashi.
