When the harvest is booming, roasted garden vegetables are on my menu. Roasting brings out their natural sweetness and is so easy to do.
It’s that time of the year again! So many things are ready from the garden to put on the table.
Tonight it is a recipe for roasted baby potatoes, with onions and summer squash.
Be sure to spring for the fresh herbs. Since I have a ton of zucchini growing in my garden right now, this recipe is a great way to use it.
You can use dried herbs (use 1/3 of the quantity in the recipe) but the flavor is go great with the fresh herbs that it is worth it. (and they are so easy to grow on a patio deck!) I used basil, oregano, thyme and parsley today.
My oil was a rosemary infused olive oil. It gave the dish an extra flavor boost.
This makes a great side dish for any protein meal and is so healthy too. Tonight we are having it with grilled Italian sausages. Can’t wait!
