Roasted Vegetables
August 27, 2010 11:43 am

Try to keep all pieces approx the same size so they cook evenly
 yellow or white onion, chopped
 russet potatoes, cubed
 carrots, sliced
corn, either on the cob or not
zucchini cut into pieces
drizzle with 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
basically any root veggies will work
season to taste, salt, pepper, garlic powder, Mrs. Dash's-whatever
and wrap in foil.
place on baking sheet and bake at 375 for 45" to an hour.

Spicy Butternut Squash Soup
August 27, 2010 11:34 am
I'd just like to say that I haven't mastered the art of bariatric cooking, as I just had surgery on the 19th of this month. So, if you can offer advice re these recipes, I welcome it.
I just want to post for the veggie choices.

Spicy Butternut Squash Soup

Medium size Butternut Squash
2 large carrots
1 medium red onion, finely chopped
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 red chili pepper, finely chopped (I use some chili powder instead)
2 Tbsp. fresh thyme
2 to 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
4 to 5 cups vegetable stock
Fresh ground pepper
Sea salt
Freshly grated Parmesan cheese (if desired)
1. Peel squash and cut in half lengthwise, remove seeds and cut squash into 1/2 inch cubes.

2. Peel and cut carrots same as squash.

3. Sweat onion and garlic in olive oil, medium heat, 5 to 7 minutes until translucent.

4. Add squash and carrots, cook another 10 minutes to soften vegetables.

5. Add sea salt and pepper to taste.

6. Add thyme, chile peppers and stock, bring to boil and simmer 30 plus minutes.

7. Check seasoning and puree in processor or blender a little at a time, letting steam escape.

8. Garnish with Parmesan Cheese (if desired) and serve.

My first recipe

Texas Caviar
I don't measure anything...
I cook 1 lb black eye peas, drain, salt, jalapeno peppers and cilantro to taste, 3/4c red wine vinegar, green peppers, and green onions cut up.
Mix
Refrigerate overnight to let flavors meld.
I have a serious addiction to this stuff.
