Whatcha Eatin?

Pan fried socca served with sliced avocados and lots of freshly ground black pepper.

I make chickpea flour omelets in a cast iron stovetop--can't see how different this would be baked, but i'll have to try.I guess there is more oil involved!
 
Roasted veggies. I finally did them where they turned out good! I chopped them into bite sized pieces and didn't overcrowd them. It still took an hour which is weird because my friend said it takes about 30 minutes. I used zucchini, onions, tri colored carrots, sweet potatoes and beets. The beets turned everything red but it was delicious. I can’t wait to make more.
Glad it's not just me! I've heard to roast veggies like cauliflower as little as 15-20 minutes! I just roasted a head for about 30-40 at 450 F. They were only .69 cents at our produce market--and organic! I'll be having a lot of cauliflower now!

All of that sounds so good!
What was the oven temperature? If I do carrots and broccoli and Brussels sprouts, I usually put the oven at 400, and it takes about 20 minutes. I cut the sprouts in half, make the broccoli smallish and slice the carrots into small sticks as if to dip in hummus. For 1-2-inch potatoes chunks, it takes about 40-45 minutes at 425.

I did do 400 degrees. It’s so bizarre. Maybe I’m still doing too many. For Thanksgiving I did each vegetable separately in a single layer. I did larger slices though. Those took less time each but longer total because I couldn’t fit all the trays in at the same time. It worked then because I was doing other stuff in the kitchen so it didn’t matter.
 
It’s ok because I finally made roasted vegetables that tasted good. It’s worth the hour. Especially the beets. Omg. I heard of people roasting them but was always too lazy to do it.

Sugar hound! ;)

Do you have an oven thermometer? Maybe your oven is off. When I lived in apartments, the ovens were never accurate, so I kept a thermometer in them and would have to set them up or down depending on the oven. One oven was off by 50 degrees!

Christmas leftovers: Nut roast with gravy, pickled beets, garlic smashed potatoes, broccoli, cranberry sauce and Italian bread with EB. I think the nut roast tastes even better a day or so after.

Psyllium jelly made with pineapple-mango juice. Psyllium is pricy, so i always keep it in case i catch cold (to avoid gut problems),- i don't eat it on a daily basis.

Watcha eatin...nothing healthy I can tell you that. 😁

I had chips and dip for breakfast. I did have pasta for lunch but I made a cheesy sauce with cashews. Then I finished off the dip with the rest of the chips. Now I’m having tea and cookies. 😁😁

yeah I’m smiling now. Remind me of my evil ways when I complain that I’ve gained weight. 😁😁😁
