Roasted Veggies & Salsa Recipes!

These are two dishes that I made for the Instructables Intern dinner. They're simple recipes and you can alter them in a ton of ways. :D

Please excuse the lack of exact measurements and lack of multiple pictures. I was winging it at the time.

Step 1 Roasted Veggies: Go shopping!

You will need:

• 1-2 pounds of potatoes (I prefer reds, but most anything will work.)
• 1-2 pounds of brussel sprouts.
• 1-2 pounds of baby carrots
• salt and pepper
• olive oil to coat
• dried herbs - basil, thyme, rosemary, oregano
• a baking sheet or pan of some sort large enough to hold the veggies

Sweet peppers & tomatoes are sublime roasted--so is summer squash.

Have you ever tried roasting fresh beets? You can peel them before or after cooking (I prefer before--just use a vege peeler), toss with a little olive oil and place in a cake pan large enough for them to be in a single layer. Cover pan with foil and bake/roast for 45-60 minutes, until tender when poked with a fork. They are so much better than boiled or steamed beets, they're practically a different vegetable. Boiling dilutes flavor, roasting concentrates it. Oh, and to remove beet stain from hands, wash with a little clorox. Or process the beet with rubber gloves.
