Roasted Broc or Brussel sprouts as well.
Green beans and mushrooms sautéed together with some butter and soy sauce Cherry Tomatoes, Avocado and Mozzarella "caprese" During the fall, I usually just throw whatever veggies I have together and roasted them. Peppers, onions, mushrooms, Brussels, etc etc etc. |

1. Broccoli, a red pepper, garlic cloves, olive oil, balsamic, a squeeze of lemon juice, salt and pepper in the oven at 425 for 30-45 minutes (depending on how much broccoli and how many layers). A little black is good, but you may want to cover at a certain point.
2. Sautee onions, half an eggplant (cubed), some bell pepper (any color) in a pan in canola oil and/or butter (butter is GOOD with this, even though it sounds weird). You may need to add more oil because eggplant is a sponge and will burn. De-glaze the pan with a mixture of a few tbsp soy sauce, a tbsp of rice wine vinegar, a tbsp of white sugar (whatever, it's good when it's sweet). Throw in a big handful of basil and a few chopped red chilies (or forget the chilies and use sriracha to finish). Serve alone, or over rice and with edamame as a side for a meal. LOVE THIS. 3. Sautee a little diced onion and garlic on the stove. When browned, add a bag of frozen corn (or 6 or so ears of fresh corn if in season). Throw in a bunch of halved grape tomatoes, a handful of cilantro, and toss w/ a little more olive oil. Can add black beans for a more hearty side dish, but I like it simple and pure veggies. |

1. Sauté part of a diced onion and garlic in olive oil in a medium skillet. Add a couple Tb lemon juice and about 1/4 cup water. Bring to a simmer, add a head of broccoli (cut into florets), and toss to cover with the lemon juice. Cover and pan-steam for a few minutes, then uncover and let the remaining water simmer away - toss a few more times to make sure the broccoli is coated with the lemon/garlic.
2. Roasted asaparagus with olive oil and balsamic vinegar 3. Green beans, lightly steamed and tossed with butter and salt. |
