veggies

This is one of my favorite ways to prepare veggies. It is quick, simple, pretty and yummy.
Day1, we like it as a side with grilled/roasted chicken or maybe steak. Day2, I like to cook a little pasta, toss veggies with a little olive oil, and top with Parmesan cheese - maybe with some left over chicken. Day3, (if there are any left), I like on top of a little spring mix-left over chicken a bonus. Day4, (if there are any left at this point, it is because Kenny has not eaten at home the previous 2 nights), It makes a great omelet or frittata.
...
frozen whole green beans
red bell pepper
mushrooms
purple onion
yellow squash
(these are my typical choices, but you could choose others -
sometimes we substitute asparagus for the g.beans,
and/or omit the squash)
few cloves garlic
toss all in a tiny amount of olive oil
season (salt, pepper,etc)
spread on a cookie sheet
roast on 400
15-20 minutes
They should still be crunchy.

Sounds great! I love veggies cooked on the grill but Griffin prefers his raw and Luci likes hers steamed, so we usually end up preparing the same veggies 3 ways.

You can put some venison in that pot now.

WHY NOT USE FRESH GREEN BEANS? THE ONES IN THE BAG ALREADY WASHED..JUST DOWN FROM THE SQUASH AND ACROSS FROM THOSE RED ONIONS..
