Roasted Root Vegetables

January 9, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 22 Comments

Hi Everyone,

One thing I like about this time of year are the vegetables.  Yes vegetables!  In the spring its berries, berries and more berries but in the winter it is root vegetables!   They last a long time, some are sweet and others have the most distinctive flavor like fennel, and whats best they go good together.

Roasted Root Vegetables

In my last shipment from the CSA they sent me a ton of root vegetables along with a ton of oranges and apples.  They also sent me some beets.  I don’t like beets, I don’t know what to do with them?  Cooking them takes so long, and I asked my Husband if he likes beets and he wasn’t thrilled about them.  Maybe I’ll cook them anyway so I don’t waste them, maybe I’ll be surprised and like them if I cook them myself?  Do you like beets?  What do you do with them?

Root Vegetables


My Roasted Root Vegetables contain baby red potatoes, turnips, fennel and carrots.  I tossed them in olive oil and added a sprinkle of salt and pepper.  I placed them in a baking dish and roasted them for about 45 minutes.  They turned out so good!!  Such a simple dish, yet the flavors, oh the flavors are simply wonderful together.  The fennel, which surprised me didn’t taste very strong at all.  I was afraid it would be to much of a licorice taste, but it wasn’t.  I felt the turnips didn’t have much of a taste, my Husband thought they were a potato.   For an added little touch, I topped my roasted vegetables with some of the leaves from the fennel.

Roasted Root Vegetables

I made the serving size for about 1 1/2 cups each.  But I think, I personally ate about 3 servings.   As you know from Monday’s post, I like to cook in batches and this was one big batch.  So what does one do with leftover roasted root vegetables?  Well, I snacked on the veggies, but I also made a savory little pizza.

Roasted Root Vegetable Pizza

I had a FlatOut Bread so I topped it with a little pizza sauce, roasted butternut squash, the roasted root vegetables, a few cut up cherry tomatoes and some mozzarella and goat cheese.  Placed it on a baking sheet and baked it at 400 degrees for about 8 minutes.  It was delish!!  This made a quick dinner!!  If you don’t have FlatOut Bread, a tortilla, pita bread or pizza dough would work great! The cooked vegetables on the pizza were perfect  and of course I topped it with some crushed red pepper.

Roasted Root Vegetables Pizza

Don’t mind the photos of the pizza.  It was a quick shot so I could show you.  It wasn’t planned and my photo area was not available, plus I wanted a warm dinner 🙂 Oh and the leftovers go great on a simple bed of lettuce with a drizzle of balsamic dressing!!!  Yummy!!

Roasted Root Vegetables

I have to admit I have been on a major health kick lately.  I’m really, really trying to be better!  Some days it’s hard, but thank goodness I like fruits and vegetables!!!  They save me, when I need a sugar kick!  Nothing like a fresh, sweet juicy orange when your feeling sluggish and hungry.  I love guilt-free food!  I eat two oranges everyday!  Did you make New Years Resolutions?   How are you doing so far sticking to them?

Well my Friends time to go!  I need to pack up my lunch and head to bed!

Have a great day!

Toodles,

Jen

    That’s a great idea! I love beets, cut up & tossed with a little olive oil, then I cover them & bake them till they’re soft. No one else in my family likes them, but I’m always glad to see them in our CSA share. 🙂

    Try a beet salad. Cut them up, toss in olive oil and roast until fork tender. Add them to a salad of spinach, orange slices, dried cranberries, feta cheese, and candied pecans. Toss with a balsamic vinaigrette. It is delicious!

    You can cook grated beets, it does not take a lot of time and it’s delicious 🙂 Your idea for roasted root vegetables is great!

    i don’t like beets either but I pureed them and put them into a bread dough that i was making and I LOVED the bread! Probably because it didn’t taste like beets at all. It’s on my blog somewhere if you want to find it! I bet if you also put them in any baked good (in place of pumpkin maybe) you’d like em!

    I used to think I hated beets, until my friend from England made me a batch of pickled beets. They were SOOOOO good. I don’t like them any other way. I made a wonderful beet and pistachio salad with pickled beets that was to die for. Here is the recipe: http://whatsfordinner-momwhatsfordinner.blogspot.com/2012/01/beet-and-feta-salad-with-pistachios.html

    I definitely get more excited about spring berries than winter veggies. But! That flatbread veggie pizza looks so, so good (and I’m not one to say that about vegetables!)

    So this may sound weird but it’s actually fairly good:
    I do red beet (cooked, grated) with sauerkraut (chopped), onions, chives, oil, salt, pepper, nutmeg and caraway as some sort of salad. It’s great with toasted baguette…
    I might add that I’m German and really like sauerkraut but I assume it’s not everybody’s taste ;D
    By the way, I love the idea of the pizza, looks delicious.

Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is Happy Tuesday! One thing you guys know about me is that I love Target. It’s my happy place. I get so excited each season to see all the new things that come out. 
🌿
One thing I always love is there faux vase/pot flowers and plants. They are always so pretty and I want to buy them all. But there a couple of things that stops me. The biggest one is that I have no storage for them. Two, they seemed to have gone up in price. They seemed a little pricy to me. 
🌿
For my arrangement, I used one of my canisters for the bathroom. I used floral foam to stick the stems in and I used the paper towel as a filler because I only had very little bit of moss. If I had more moss and I would probably not use the paper towel. This arrangement cost me $5.99. 
🌿
Tip: If you look at Targets faux foliage stems only, they have a lot that are same of what use in there vases. The one I used was Hearth and Hand and was only $5.99 for a stem. The exact ones they used in there pots.
🌿
Hope you enjoy this as much as I have making it. 
Enjoy your day!

My husband decided to take vacation days this week, and my kitchen does not look so pretty. He has his 💩 everywhere. So annoying. 
💖
Here’s a little bit of the styling that I did. I will work on the coffee bar this weekend, though I’m running a blank on how to style it. I need some inspiration.

What do you do to get inspiration?

I’m sharing heart shaped cinnamon rolls that I made this weekend. I got the idea to make them from my friend Heidi @eleanorrosehome. She made the most delicious looking cinnamon rolls, that I couldn’t resist to make. So perfect for Valentines Day and sooooo easy! 
❤️
I took a can of Trader Joe’s cinnamon rolls and unraveled them, if that makes sense, and rolled them up like a palmier cookie. So fun! You could add food coloring to the frosting to make it pink and add sprinkles. Super cute! You can follow step by step recipe on Heidi’s Instagram page! 
❤️
Thank you Heidi for sharing the recipe. This was so fun!
❤️
Would you rather get chocolate or flowers for Valentines Day?

I’m sharing with you my corner of my living room. I love how open this space looks. I added greenery to give it a fresh look. I also stuck with mostly natural colors with an exception of some blues to bring my whole living room together.

Tomorrow I am going to start to share Valentines Day. My dining room is filling up with hearts. It’s so fun. I can’t wait to start sharing. Hope you have a beautiful day!
